how do you 'ghost' a shield?

[ohako]

So I've got a really nice buckler. Some of the time I'd like to swing a sword around, because swords are cool. Other times I'd like to swing a mace at bad guys, because reasons. I'd like to switch my weapon in the middle of a fight, but keep my same shield. The wiki says there's a way to do this, but I can't seem to figure out how.

 

Is there a way to 'ghost' a shield between two or more sets of weapons?

Or, is there a way to 'ghost a weapon between two or more sets of shields?

If there is, how do I do it?

 

Thanks!

You can't use the same shield across different weapon sets. You can add a different shield to both sets, however.

well, fudgewagons!

 

zat mean this Equipment Slots bit is wrong then? I'm not a premium member of the somethingawful forums, so I can't check the reference.

 

was kinda hoping to switch weapons without having to switch my shield out as well

No way to do this atm. Kind of a UI oversight since it doesn't make any sort of sense as an intentional feature. Maybe they'll add that in a future patch?

IE mod allows you to change items during battle ala the IE games. You can always try that if necessary (google IE mod nexus for the latest version) as it would allow you to change weapons without losing your shield.

You can also just duplicate your shield in IE mod, and add one copy to each weapon slot.
