<b>Lion Shield</b>
<br>
This large emblazoned shield denotes the power of the Templars and their commitment to Justice. This shield gives its wearer +10 AC, Crushing and Slashing Resist 10%, Piercing Resist 15% and Crushing, Slashing and Piercing Damage Thresholds +1. However, because of its bulk, it also slows attack speed down by 7%, and decreases Unarmed Skill by 10.

[POOPERSCOOPER]

hey

Reminds me of Diablo item stats, lots of possible varaitions.

 

[Psilon]

Only with lots of penalties as well.

 

[Major_Blackhart]

I think it makes it interesting

 

[Psilon]

Sure adds a bit more depth when the bonuses come at a cost; specialists can become even more so.

 

[Vault Dweller]

Well, these bonuses do come at a cost, but the penalties seem to be somewhat symbolic. I am not sure how big of a deal the loss of attack speed by 7% is, but the decrease of Unarmed skill by 10 while having a shield equipped sounds like a 1-handed item that comes with a penalty to 2-handed skills. I'm not sure how the game handles unarmed combat though as it's theoretically possible to have a shield in one hand and fight with one fist but it sounds kinda lame.
