it used to give an agility bonus as per its lore description and the fact its a pretty unremarkable legendary shield otherwise.
yet in 3.0 it gives nothing.
Since 3.0, no handhelds give any bonuses. No weapons, no tools, no shields. I think too many people were using handhelds as “stat sticks.”
that is pretty lame, has it stripped the heat and cold bonus from the other legendary shields?
Kinda pointless if what made something legendary isnt rebalance or added to, feels kinda lazy like “we cant work it out so we are just gonna cut it out”

No.
Unique bonuses were not stripped from handhelds, but anything that used to give attributes, now no longer does.
Didn’t they switch so that they get the calculated bonuses of the stat instead of the stat itself? I’m pretty sure stats in items breaks the perk system of the new stats.
thats what I figured but its just stat blank, perhaps intentionally as davice has said.
For armors yes, but not handhelds. Weapons, tools and shields that used to give an attribute now no longer does.

It was (probably) supposed to, but Funcom either forgot, or decided not to. It’s not like they tell us much these days, so we kinda have to guess at the intention. I guess it helps obfuscate whether something is a bug.
