Dragonwilds:Anti-Dragon Shield: Difference between revisions

Even though the game's lore journal states it "surpasses the strength of iron", it only has a rating of 39 block. This is identical to a Dragonwilds:Bronze Shield, whereas an Dragonwilds:Iron Shield has 46 block.
Since it's release, the shield is the only item, aside from quest items and ammunitions, that does not drop into the Dragonwilds:Gravestone when a player dies, it instead stays in the inventory.
The shield's appearance is a mix of Template:OSL and its own design. It keeps the same colour and sword-shaped symbol in the front with the three dragon claws, which is consistent with the Template:RSL version. The main difference lies in the shape of the shield, while Old School RuneScape’s version features a more squared design, RuneScape’s version is an elongated hexagonal or heater-shaped shield, giving it a more vertical look.
