Probably a little late here since 3.0 is going to blow up the entire system but shouldn’t shields get attribute bumps from an armorer thrall?
The shield counts as a weapon.
Wait I really haven’t put any attachments outside of durability ones on shields. Can they get armor bonus ones?
Shields are considered weapons as Wotanna said, but literally use none of the stats for shield based attacks. Its all dependant on your mainhand weapon.
Because of this, the only thing ever worth buffing on them is durability for when you occasionally block.
Id like to see these stats actually work alongside different block effectiveness.
Say a shield has higher damage/pen for its tier, it then cant stop 100% of damage, maybe 80%. Make it a gameplay choice.
