um..... thats not how vitapods work. They increase your "total capacity", and neither add nor remove health from your health bar. If you started with 5 full bars, and picked up at a 12 pod, you STILL have 5 full bars. Doing what your suggesting would allow people to regen health by repeatedly dropping and picking up the same vitapod. Unless dropping it took away health bars to the keep the % scale.

@Madadder: hes saying the wording is ambiguous to how shields actually works. But "Shield resists to" doesn't clarify it either. Part of the problem is people assume the shield is an extension to armor, which is standard practice in a lot of games. They need to make shield stat labels more distinct from armor, or people will continue to make that mistake.

The most obvious change would be to replace Health with Durability, but I can still see people confusing the mechanic. Replacing Resistance with "Blocking Bonus vs" would go a long way though.

And for the record, fire traps deal elemental damage, which owlite shields have strong defense against. The fire resist does help it, but not nearly as much as the elemental def. If you wanna see how much difference the resistance makes, use a Crest shield on a fire trap and see how long it lasts.

I wouldn't mind seeing vitapods dropped by players keep however many hearts the knight lost when dropping it, but having the vitapods drop pre-charged from monsters and boxes doesn't sit well with me.

(Yes, I've since learned to lock my hud. I only made that mistake once)
