Lorian Shield Light shield, MC effect toggles between two modes. It will either boost your block rate against incoming attacks by default, or lower your damage taken. Similar to the Master's Blade, it scales potency based on how full your HP is, with a value = to 10% Melee at 100% HP, 5% Melee at 75% HP, and 0% Melee at <= 50% HP, basically every 5% HP you lose below your max you lose 1% Melee worth of potency on the shield's effects. The following numbers are based on you being at 100% HP, thus are the full potency at 10% Melee. Block mode: Lowers BtH of incoming attacks by 6. Resistance mode: Lowers incoming damage by -(10 / 1.4 = 7.14)%. If used with the Master's Blade, the Master's Blade effects get doubled potency.

From Kam on Discord: Item Update - quote: Lorian Shield: Similar to the Master's Blade, the shield now caps out at effects = to 15% Melee at full HP. So at full HP you'll get +9 MRM in block mode, or take -(15/1.4)% damage in damage reduction mode. These still scale down as before, so you'll go down to 7.5% Melee for the effect at 75% HP (so +4.5 MRM, for example), and the effect vanishes fully at <= 50% HP.

Brightslayer Bulwark Ice shield, MC effect is that based on the % of attacks that miss against you from the monster, you gain up to a +33.333...% damage Empowerment effect for the next turn, basically the bonus is +(100 / 3 x Misses / Attempts)% damage. MC is normally 5% Melee, due to 85% hit rate that gets /0.15, so that gives us 33.333...% Melee. This Empowerment effect covers all elements, and is applied at the start of your turn, and you can freely swap shields once the effect is applied. If using the Brightslayer weapons, the potency of this effect gets doubled to a max of +66.666...% damage Empowerment. Scales, so sample numbers are below.

Nutcracker Defender Light shield, MC effect causes you to be granted a beneficial effect at the end of your turn based on which mode the shield is in, the shield has 3 modes. In order to activate these effects, you must have the listed SP to power the effect, the shield pays 5% Melee MC as well as 20% Melee in SP for these effects. In EleShield mode, which is the default, the shield will grant you a 1-turn -(25/1.4 = 17.86)% damage taken universal EleShield (as a quick-cast, this would be locked to Light or take a cost/potence penalty to be non-elemental, but since you have to end turn with the shield equipped, that's enough to not have it considered always useful). In DefBoost mode, the shield will grant you a 1-turn +15 MRM DefBoost. Finally in Regen mode, the shield will apply a mini healing spell to you worth 25% Melee, with a x0.85 modifier since it auto-hits (no always useful penalty since, again, you must end your turn while the shield is equipped), primary stat for the spell is END instead of INT. If you don't have enough SP when your turn ends to power any of these effects, the shield will skip applying its chosen effect, and instead heal your SP for 5% Melee (so 1/4 of the usual SP cost for the effects). If used with the Nutcracker weapons, the shield will only charge 15% Melee in SP (so 3/4 of the amount listed) per turn, if you don't have the required SP, the shield will instead heal your SP for 10% Melee (so 1/2 of the amount listed).

Dark Asgardian Shield Darkness shield, MC effect is skill compression. The skill checks your equipped weapon to determine its SP cost and if it should do Melee/Ranged/Magic damage. The skill has a +10 accuracy lean and pays 66.5% Melee (this is done after calcing the boost it gets from EleComp for being on a shield) to attempt to inflict a 3 turn (33.3... x MobDarkRes x Hits / 2)% stun rate Daze, the skill has two hits. Status inflicts with your STR/DEX/INT (for Melee/Ranged/Magic damage, respectively) and LUK vs mob's END/LUK, 50% save.

quote: Kinda minor but: I was fixing a bug with the Doom Knight's Blade and while I was there I figured I could touch up the code a bit. One thing led to another and - it now scales - it now uses 1.09 damage for no special (instead of 1.08) - deals +10% damage to undead (instead of 1.1) - really minor point, but it literally replaces [Mob's Darkness res] with [Mob's whatev res], instead of doing the new/old. It should have the same outcome, except now it works against mobs with 0% Darkness. I also got the shield because it'd be a bit weird of only one scaled, eh? - it now scales - its damage is a bit higher (the same way that we upped poison/burn when the stat cap was increased)

Legion Shogun Defender Water shield. MC effect is that you hit your SP with a healing effect worth 2.5% Melee each time you get hit by an attack. Technically this has a /0.85 boost since it requires you getting hit, but it also gets a x0.85 penalty since it auto-hits. The 2.5% is the 5% MC split in half since we assume 2 hits on average per turn per source.

New GGB item: Devourer of Souls MC Ice shield. Scales according to the below values. You can click on the shield to have it inflict an SP burn on the mob (power: 1.5, Harm, heals you equal to damage dealt). The monster can resist with a save at a +0 bonus (inflict with DEX/LUK, resist with CHA/LUK). This costs SP equal to [15% of a Melee skill] per turn.

From the new Grenwogfest quest: Spring Dryad Defender. Kam says: Water shield, Melee > Ranged > Magic MRM priority. MC effect is misc compression that gives you a STR/INT boost while active. SP cost of this is x2 of what it would normally be since it's not on an actual misc slot. Guardian version gets a -1 SP cost which is already factored into the numbers below.

Doomlight FrostRipper/TremorHide Defender Ice/Earth shields. MC effect is a +10 potence to the Backlash status, and the shield also takes a -6 MRM penalty (already factored into the numbers below) to apply a Backlash that strikes back for (20/1.4)% of the damage you take. Scales, with lowest level being PowLv 59, sample numbers below. The Backlash potence is low due to the fact the shield itself also applies Backlash.

Lost Talon MC set shield, via Kam: quote: Talonguard/Lost Talon Tower Talonguard used for Lv <= 135, Lost Talon for the Lv 150 ones. MC effect for this is that you toggle on and adjusts the shield's Light and Ice resists to be = to its current Wind resists. So the Lv 135 version will get -25% to Wind/Light/Ice all at once. This is a bit wonkier than normal compression, which normally charges extra gold, so we're charging 10% Melee per turn per element, so this will cost 20% Melee per turn. Full Set Bonus is that if you're in the armour and one of the set weapons, you get a further reduction in your Light/Ice resists = to the difference between those and the Wind resist on the armour of the same level tier. So if there's a 7% difference between Wind and Light/Ice (like at Lv 150) then you get a further -7% on the shield's resists while the toggle is active, so your Wind/Light/Ice resists will all be equal. This isn't as much as the usual effect, so we're charging an extra 10% Melee for this, FSB would normally be worth 10% Melee for a 3-piece set, but this FSB gets halved to 5% since you're able to use this to have Wind as your attacking element and Wind/Light/Ice as your defending elements, so your total extra cost in the full set is 5% Melee, so outside the set, you pay 20% Melee in SP per turn to maintain the extra resists, in the set you pay 25% Melee in SP per turn to maintain the extra resists. Also has Lv 11/80 Z versions that cost 407/2200 tokens respectively, and match stats with the Lv 45/90 versions.
