koong1 6 Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 Draconic visage drop from Graetoriax is kind of a rip drop. Why not take it up a notch? Graetorian defender is for DPS, why not make a Graetorian Shield for tanking? Graetorian visage drop from Graetoriax, which can be added to exisiting dragonfire shield to make Graetorian Shield. Graetorian shield will have better defence stats than the regular dragonfire shield. Possibly adding a small HP bonus of 50 as well. Requiring 99 smithing to make and 90 defence to wield. Do let me know your thoughts! If you guys like the idea, I can draft up a graphic render for viewing~ 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaotic 125 Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 Its meant to be a rip drop, its a yay but meh drop. Dont support this, waste of le time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Developer Luke 134 Posted July 5, 2020 Developer Share Posted July 5, 2020 Your idea of a more defensive shield upgrade isnt bad but the dfs serves its current purpose of an average drop to even out the drop table. No support on it being replaced/removed, but I'm not against an upgrade being created Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goddess 130 Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 I don't really support this suggestion - there isn't really a big call for shields as it is. We already have the Divine, which is primarily the only shield used. The Elysian shield (although ranged based) is already a slight downgrade from the Divine. If anything it would be a new mid-tier shield which not a lot of players will use, but you're proposing for it to be tailored for endgame with the HP boost.

Splash 203 Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 I wouldn't replace the DFS drop with a new grae dfs, but i also wouldn't be opposed to replacing one of the ornament kits with a new DFS Kit. Regardless whether this passes or not, i'd be very interested to see your rendition of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Kari 308 Posted July 5, 2020 Administrators Share Posted July 5, 2020 Nice like the idea of a "grae dfs" of some sort but not to replace the dfs drop. I'm not sure how it could be done, and if it's even needed at all as the divine will still be used instead. I'm not against this but I'm not exactly supporting it either at this point, but I'd like more input on this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some donators have permenant super anti-fire potion effect, maybe this shield will be good in the hands of non-donators. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But for the non-donators, they would still need DFS for dragons. I thought it would be a nice idea to have a leveled up DFS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if this idea is turned down, it would be fun to make the render. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe the grae visage can be attached to the exisiting DFS to make into the grae DFS (same idea as the ornament kits), but with stats increase. For non-donators, some would use DFS for dragons. Cutting the need to bring anti-fire potions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
