So, about allagan weps being increased to ilvl 95

[LayNay]

Where art thou BLM shield?! The only problem with the crafted shield + allagan MH being (maybe) equivalent to relic +1 is the fact that in itself that wouldn't be an "upgrade" which defeats the purpose of changing the allagan weapons to ilvl95 (at least for the BLMs sake). If the shield were to drop in T5 along with the rest of the weapons it would still be a small rng hassle to aquire both but, at least it would be attainable.

Maybe itll be added in 2.1, 2.2? Who knows. xD

I'm just happy I dont need to get to turn 5 to get a new weapon.

But I want to be excited about clearing turn 5 and the BLM wep dropping not just sitting there saying to myself, great we got the one worthless weapon.

Yeah, that does suck. I can't relate as much though, I hate 1 handers. :3

Maybe the EM primal quest will give BLMs a shield? Its a stretch but you never know!

[RhazeCain]

Anyone see new drops/loot distribution out of turn1 since the hotfix last week? My group got the caster ring AGAIN, and I dunno what the change was exactly. Conceivably shields not dropping could be related.

The real question, is whether or not there will be a new upgrade for relic weapons from extreme modes or possibly a ultima weapon chain.

[Archulak]

I'm just really wondering why they included the BLM and WHM shields in the item database when they're the only things I can see in there that you can't get from the game currently or from 1.0.

[Kal-El]

CT may drop an iLevel 80 sheild so it'll probably be worth it with that.

Personally I prefer 1 handers. Having a shield is actually helpful since your weapon is drawn unlike in v1.0, it gives you a small survivability edge for not that much compromise.
