Shields

I was recently told by a friend that shields are also special upgradable. Apparently, not only will the shield glow, but your clothes will glow as well whenever it is either 3rd or 5th level. Can someone confirm this?

Shields are not special upgradable.

You can only SU weapons.

I was told by a Nexon employee that you can special upgrade a composite shield. I'm proffing one now to test it. just gotta jem upgrade then we're set.

Maybe they meant Artisan Upgrade?

No, special upgrade with upgrade stones. As sated in OP, it causes more than just the shield to glow. Again, I'm probably going to finish proffing tomorrow and will find out weather I got trolled or not by Nexon >.<

Just put the shield on the SU Anvil, if it says it can't be Special Upgraded then that's so, if it says that it need a Jewel Upgrade first, then it can be.

Ok, after I tried it for myself then told my friend he appologized and said that he did it to his dragon shield. Being as I traded my dragon shield for my composite, I can't test this. If anyone has a gem upgraded dragon shield, could you test this?

It. Is. Impossible. To. Special. Upgrade. A. Shield. That is all.
