Everywhere on this wiki, it says that the necessary shields skill values to remove penalties are 5/15/25 for normal-sized races, but it says here that they only need a skill of 4 to remove penalties for bucklers.

Shield with bows?
Is it actually possible to use a shield with a two-handed bow? Or perhaps the attack speed penalty shown on the page applies only to formicids? --Chikinn (talk) 10:15, 6 August 2016 (CEST)
Shield penalty
Everywhere on this wiki, it says that the necessary shields skill values to remove penalties are 5/15/25 for normal-sized races, but it says here that they only need a skill of 4 to remove penalties for bucklers. Is this info wrong, or has everyone always been raising their skill 1 more than necessary? --Fingolfin (talk) 10:20, 14 August 2015 (CEST)
