Talk:Aegis (3.5e Equipment)

This is pretty hard to balance.

Tying the effect into the hardness of the shield may not be the best of ideas since hardness goes up by 2 with every point of enhancement bonus. With a +5 adamantine aegis shield (that's just 51k gold) that's a base hardness of 30. Then, there are several ultra hard materials in the homebrew section (fodinan diamond for one with a hardness of 30, and some even higher) that would make you hard to beat in any cramped space. With several ways and spells for upping material hardness, I can see it being pretty easy to become nigh-unstoppable from a specific direction. --Sulacu (talk) 18:48, 29 April 2017 (MDT)
