Please let the beautiful Wave Buckler shield serve a purpose once again!

Dear Development team,

I'd like to make a request that the Wave Buckler and its counterpart (Tidal Wave Buckler) item be made accessible to Gladiator and Paladin classes, as it can currently only be equipped by Conjurer or White Mage.

It is a beautifully crafted item and has a very unique and charming look, and I believe that somebody put a lot of work into it and was probably very proud of the end result.

I have wanted to use this as a glamour on my Paladin for a couple of years now, but unfortunately, due to the nature of a White Mage's early gear progression at level 50, this shield is rarely either used or useful. In fact, I don't think I've ever seen it used since around patch 2.4

I implore that the development team make this available to Paladin and Gladiator and breathe life into this wonderful work of design once more! Thank you for your consideration :)

Yes! I have been longing for this as well for years!!!! Currently, it is completely unusable as all WHM weapons are two-handed. So we can't even glamour it on a WHM. Making it available to PLD and GLA is definitely one way to make this beautiful shield usable again!

Like Shouko already linked, what's wrong with the actual tank version of the shield (Wave Shield)? It's the exact same model, just a slightly different colour.
