Templar equippable metal crafted shields?

[Selius]

Title is a test of a tongue strength. I'm rather annoyed that none of the shields I can make are actually equippable by me. I can make and wear platemail, yet I can't actually wear any of the shields I craft. I'm only level 20 Armorsmith, so if this changes, let me know, but if not... total disappointment.

I think you will continue to be disappointed. <img src="/smilies/9d71f0541cff0a302a0309c5079e8dee.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /> I believe Wood Workers make the shields for priests and scouts.  I guess wearing all that plate means you don't have enough strength to lift a decent shield!  Or maybe having a metal shield would make your healing rusty? <img src="/smilies/8a80c6485cd926be453217d59a84a888.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /> BTW, Wood Workers are disappointed too, as they used to make all the shields. <img src="/smilies/9d71f0541cff0a302a0309c5079e8dee.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />

Also alot of the time you don't want a shield anyway because a symbol or Totam may give you better stats for that slot then a shield would... Also I think the only "shield" priests can carry is a buckler.

<p>There are a few dropped round shields that priests can equip, but they are few and far between (in my experience). At level 70 I've only seen 1 linked /shrug.</p><p>and ewwwww to using symbols and totems in that slot =). (personal preference).</p>
