What i was saying: The Ancient Shield was in the mined 2.0 data and was removed in 2.1 (when the EX were added + weekly) --> So it wasn't left over data from the weekly. That i90 shield never made sense except way later when you paired it with the crafted moogle cane which was added with Desynth... I was looking for it a bit before 2.1 as well b/c it was the strongest WHM shield in 2.0 and my gimp whm alt wouldve really liked it, but it vanished from the database with 2.1 so i was like oookay - sch is more fun for me to play anyways ^^
