Ohai,

Recently I've seen so much PL shields used by people that don't own them before, Am I missing something or..? I've also asked a few friends if they are feeling weird about this PL shield thing. When I ask them they said they just found it in their stash. I really want to know what is happening or could anyone explain this to me? It would be very appreciated if a dev could confirm here, or tell me as a pm. Please also post if you have seen this change too, a gain in Pl shields..

Some shields can be obtained by getting the daily blessing for 5 days or more. The longer the better. Yah some of the shields can be obtained by hax

Totally possible.

Back in the day there were contests for them, over 13 were given away. I'll finds some links if you want.

Here is one contest were they gave away 10 shields!-

We all know its from contest, as I stated few of my friends have told me how they got theirs, I'm just creating thread to ask whether you guys see this happening too. My friends got their shield RECENTLY, like few days ago, while those contest was held back then. I wouldn't be asking if it were Hahahabirdy, Teamosarah, Nick, or the others who got it from the contests. Once again, I just need a dev to confirm this, I know it is from the contests back then, But these people didn't got theirs from the contests back then.

That's the red shield with the crown on it, those were granted only to GOA.



I have a PL shield and I wear it often on my character 'Thepumpking' so don't be freaked out if you see it.

Let bygones be bygones. Who cares if they're handing them out again? More cool shields to be seen!

Remember, it is STG's item & to those who have it, it was given to them by STG as a gift/reward. To think it's exclusive is just a little silly. As they were a gift, STG can hand them out to whoever they like.

Note: This is just to the original owners, like myself, who are going to complain about them being brought back.

I used it at L20.

When combined with rose wand, it was a very deadly combination. The high armor + high debuff build lead to lots of 0s.

Valentines rose wands came like half a year after the mynas gen...

Mynas gen = AO2 cap (lvl 45), july/august 2010 (the Mynas tomb map got nerfed in September, I think)
Rose Wands = February 2011

@Levelone My twink name was poking fun at the mynas generation, so I called it mynasgen.

Guys this shield is given to players with outstanding community contribution. Giving a ton of noobs gold is nice but I doubt sts tracks it and throwing money at a company doesn't mean you are a helpful member of the community. The shield is also rewarded by customer service if there is some issue with your game play. Example: a player told me he received 3x combo from daily blessing several times and yet never actually got it. When they finally helped him and looked into the problem they found it was an error on the developer end and they rewarded him with 3x combo for a few days and a PL shield as an apology.

Just be nice and continue to help the community and you may eventually get a shield of your own. Unfortunately it's very hard to be recognized for good deeds in PL because the developers and moderators are a mere few and we are many
