Like the title says, I'm looking for an appraisal on the following shield. I have to confirm that all of the information is correct, but based on my notes from the last time I sang to it, it all should be right. Any insight would be appreciated.


Large shield - 6x (+30), perm +14 TD, spiked, +7 Strength Base, +4 Armor Use Bonus, +4 Health Recovery



The first thing that strikes you about the shield is the weight, which is about 5 pounds. In your best estimation, it's worth about 4,750,000 silvers. You can also tell that the illthorn round shield is predominantly crafted of illthorn.

Though you don't yet have a full understanding of the shield's qualities, you get the impression it would be a tricky project (498 difficulty) for an adventurer to modify.

You sense a faint aura of magic surrounding the shield. From the pitch of the vibration you determine that the purpose of the shield is as a shield. Also, it seems to have some sort of enhancive properties.

It has a bonus of +30 from a normal shield, and the way it vibrates in tune with your voice tells you that it serves some type of defensive purpose, different from that of normal armor. It also has some type of special ability, but you can't tell what yet.
The shield resonates with your voice, indicating that it enhances its owner in the following ways:
It provides a boost to Health Recovery.
This enhancement may not be used by adventurers who have not trained 20 times.
It provides a boost to Strength Base.
This enhancement may not be used by adventurers who have not trained 23 times.
It provides a boost to Armor Use Bonus.
This enhancement may not be used by adventurers who have not trained 10 times.
You think that you could probably find out something more about the shield's enhancive properties if you tried.

The harmonics generated tell you that the shield serves to protect from magical attacks by providing +14 Target Defense. The magical harmonics reveal that this is an item which serves as a shield when held in the left hand.
The shield resonates with your voice, indicating that it enhances its owner in the following ways:
It provides a boost of 4 to Health Recovery.
This enhancement may not be used by adventurers who have not trained 20 times.
It provides a boost of 7 to Strength Base.
This enhancement may not be used by adventurers who have not trained 23 times.
It provides a boost of 4 to Armor Use Bonus.
This enhancement may not be used by adventurers who have not trained 10 times.
The shield looks to have a fair amount of charges remaining.

You sense that the illthorn round shield will persist after its last enhancive charge has been expended.

If its perm with no Ensorcelling it should be pretty good

If it were a tower shield, I'd say it could def fetch at least 50m... large shields have always been a hard sell for me though
