On the plus side, we DID get a Swashbuckler nerf.

Here's what we want:

Epic Shield of Don't Stop Believing +6
Mithral Heavy Shield
1d6+6 bashing, silver, magic
18-20/x2 critical
Dodge +4
Life Shield
Demonic Shield
Shield Bashing 20%
Craftable +8
Purple Augment Slot

Here's why:

+4 Dodge on something OTHER than an Icy Raiment or an Epic Nat Gann. Neither of which will work for S&B. (Duelist Leather is event item and requires considerable dex investment)
Life Shield and Demonic Shield so that the shield works even in EPIC, where AC is failsauce.
Shield Bashing because we need it.
Craftable +8 so that the shield will be adaptable for future content even if Devs decide never to make another shield again.

Cannith Challenge Shield. Make it happen.
