Latest revision as of 20:14, 27 May 2023

The throwable shield (colloquially referred to as the Captain Elanthia Shield) was first released at the Great Auction of 2016. Another was sold as a golvern targe displaying concentric rings of crimson and navy at the Grand Auction of 5123; this one is also a martial knowledge item that grants 5 ranks of the Combat Maneuver known as Shield Bash.

The shield can be used to attack targets when it is KICKed or THROWn and can hit up to 3 targets. The KICK and THROW commands are subject to a cooldown of 45 seconds and an additional 15 seconds for each target that is hit.
