"This is totally not a Crest of Retribution," Throgg explained, hefting the new shield above his head. "That was a fine shield, a mainstay of the paladin and warrior orders. Those brave men would slap a shield spike on the Crest and use it to farm dozens of enemies at once."

The classroom of young tanks sighed appreciatively. Lolegolas smiled in pride, basking in the idea of Throgg as a teacher.

"No, this is not that crest," Throgg continued. "This is the Shield of Four Grey Towers. You can purchase it from a vendor after proving your worth in dungeons. It is one of the finest shields, short of Elementium Earthguard. And considering the truly insane prices those run, it's a good option."

"It's shiny, too," Lolegolas said. "It's quite the butch-looking shield."
