Craftable shields?

[augie]

Is it possible to create green steel shields in the new crafting update? If so, has anyone made one? Unfortunately I haven't had the time to scan through a lot of the crafting posts so I was hoping some kind soul could offer the answer here.

Thanks in advance

so far, no shields and no armors .. and from what I can see, the combinations of ingredients for the Alter of Fecundity have been pretty much tapped out..

Ok cool, thanks. Been playing this game since beta and it seems my account has been cursed with poor armor/shield finding ability. Never looted anything better than +3 mith full plate or a +4 mith heavy shield in over 2 years (not counting raid loot). Was hoping there would be maybe some cool shield that could be crafted with AC/mithral/elemental guard/deathblock/fearsome abilities. I suppose they maybe held back on that so that the Litany shields weren't instantly outdated.

Well, here's hoping for some craftable shields/armor in future updates. In the meantime, there's plenty of other sweet equipment out there to be crafted.

Once we get 'real' crafting, I'm hoping we'll be able to upgrade some of our existing equipment for those of us who are loot-challenged :D

I understand where you're coming from; I play nearly every night and only 1 of my mains (of 3) is really well equipped - and most of that is due to the generosity of guildies!

Acutually .. I think they are ALL tapped out now. Someone finished off the last few. That said, just because some of them dont work now doesnt meant they wont work later. We are getting new green steel blanks and new recipies in Mod 7 for sure, but who knows, we may get something in 6.1 (anniversary) as well.
