shield tiers
hey.

is it me, or shields are barely getting better with higher tiers?
heres tier 2 medium shield VS tier 4 medium shield.

am I missing something? how I see it right now theres no reason to spend the money (especially compared to the armor right underneath it :D )

ah ok, thanks.

I guess I have been unlucky as I have only seen cavalry shields in Osbrook, be it level 3 or 4, here or at the carpenter.
and i'm not ready to take on a heavy shields penalty (yet)

will wait for one of the "proper" ones then, thanks again :)

You could try checking out Brynn's carpenter bailiff. They have a much larger selection of good, so it'll be much easier to fish for the desired item there.

I havent completed any of the bailif quests yet.
only have 3 iron ingots, and no idea yet where to find emeralds.

but i'm only about to do my first tier 3 dungeon, i've held from completing the old contract quest. so for now i'm assuming things will come in time. i'm in no rush.
i'm already happy to get occasional tier 4 stuff from Mannshire during fair time :).

thanks for replying still, and thanks for making this game, really like it so far :)
