100% chance of reducing the damage you receive by 20%.

Basically it will reduce all damage you recieve of 20%. Can we change the chance, I feel that anything higher than 50% chance to reduce damage is very powerful (I say 50% because many powerful items such as veracs have 25% chance of working)
RIP Forums :(

but since the droprate is 1/2.5k (for an individual drop) this makes the actual droprate of a sigil 4/2500= 1/500. (this is based on info that we got some time ago. not sure if confirmd)


The drop table works like a dice, you throw it and lucky get the right number out of 1/2500(if this is the correct drop rate) it isn't like "you have killed 100, atleast 2400 to go etc."
What are you, a concerned beaver?

That isn't what he's saying.

I'm still looking at and collecting feedback for wht we can do to the Divine Shield. I'm of the opinion that what it was before is a little bit too much for what we have now but it should rightfully boast it's place as the best Spirit Shield drop in terms of defensive bonuses.

In most scenarios, you were best off using at most an Elysian or a Spectral to recall some prayer. Divine was only really effective as negating some of the heavier damage you'd receive in PvP or solo/duro/perhaps trio PvM - at least from my experience, I did have (not all at once) the set back in 2008 onwards.

He is trying to point out the drop rate might be 1/500 since the sigils are 1/2500, that's probably off-topic of what he was trying to say but i just wanted to correct this, sorry.

Can the shields be re-designed? Just so they are something "new" and unique, not just a copy. I'd also like to see a red spirit shield, maybe recolour the spectral shield?




redesigned Spirit Shields? GET OUT! GO! GET OUT OF HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dont nerf shields... Corp will be waste of cash if they nerf shields.. just remember guys tht corp cant be easy to kill in 07 without dung/summ, so u need like 8+ team to kill and divine split with 8+ ppl arent big.

Yes! A few things

A lootsharing system is needed. I wouldn't trust the majority of players to split a sigil, especially the more expensive ones. With the shields being so rare, it would really suck to get scammed out of one. Coinshare is needed to ensure everyone receives a split. Perhaps a trading post exclusively for sigils? Only buy offers could be posted for the sigils (you couldn't use it to sell) that would be coinshared. The majority of the team would have to agree on the price of the split for it to be sold.

Corp is a deadly boss. At some point or another you're going to die. While I do think we shouldn't babyproof this game with gravestones, I think it should be adjusted so when you die in the beast's room your items don't show for 2 minutes, and your untradables last on ground for 3.

Maybe adjust the common drop table to have a slightly higher profit yield?

And pet please! Hype!

Edit: I would like the shields be released as they were in 2008 for such a high level boss to be worth it.
