FYI: Tower Shields and 1.69

[Cromagnon]

OK, so tower shields are 45 lbs now.

Are throwing axes supposed to be 1 lb apiece?

[Chasnor]

Some are, they are stock. Some custom ones are weight reduced.

[sinn]

I think it make sense.. maybe it should be more than only 1 AC.. but just be happy your dex or tumble is not effected while carrying such a HUGH shield

[Darkfire]

If the extra 1 AC isn't worth the weight...


use a large shield.

[Urizen]

I like shields!

...and swords too

[Mark Oban]

Thats the thing about armour, it may be heavy to carry, but not so heavy to wear, even though it still wieghs the same the weight is mostly on the shoulders, in the case of a shield, even if it weighed half the armour, would still be harder to carry concidering the left arm bares all the weight.

keep your silly logic out of this thread

If you think that's bad, wait till you hear about the ones that can get 70+ while casting spells in armor.

Bah, I can get about 80 and I cannot even cast.

I have to agree with Greg, none of it is realistic. Heck, I can stick 3 sets of full plate in a regular bag.....go figure.

I'll bet the company that makes Hefty trash bags would love to reverse-engineer bioware sacks.
