Talk:Orb classification: Weapon or Shield?
I notice that we have been using Template:Named_Weapon of orbs, when in actuality they are shields. Anyone opposed to me making the needed modifications to Template:Named_Shield and fixing them to use that template instead? This of course would just be a temporary change until I can get Template:Named_Item done (which I have been working on here and there) and everything gets moved to that.

- Orbs are to Spell casters as Rune arms are to Artificers. They are not a shield and not weapons. The weapon template fit better then shield did. Orb is its own classification but doesnt need a new template like rune arm did. Bladedge (Contributions • Message) 15:34, February 7, 2013 (EST)
