I am always fascinated by Tibia's past..

 Demon Powered Shield (Def: 50 or 54, Atk: 5), 50 oz.

Said to have existed in Tibia before 1999, Back when Tibia was not as easy to the eye as it is today. This shield entered the game illegaly and was incredibly strong with its 50 defense but for some reason it also had 5 attack! Players duplicated this item and sold it to other players for a huge amount of gold. It didn't take long until Cipsoft found out about this item and quickly deleted everyone who had the shield in its possession! A part from only a few who managed to talk their way out of it, Lightbringer being one of them.

Today, the shield obviously does not exist Tibia anymore. If it ever did? It's been around 20 years now, some sources says it did exist, some says it never did. My question might be difficult, but im obviously wondering the same, Did the Demon Powered Shield ever exist in Tibia? or was it all just a myth? Is there any proof left or has this item been swallowed by time entirely?

Just have to say I've read about and tried to solve most of the obscure/unknown parts of tibia, especially early tibia. Used to be active in the old tibia.de forum where ppl tried to solve stuff like PoI (unfinished at the time), beholder language, silver mace, and other unknown. And this is the first time ive ever heard about this shield.

Do you have any older mentions of this shield you could cite? Im thinking this is fake.

But I would love to be proven wrong!

Condemned as Demon Powered Shield Demon Powered Shield.gif , it was a very powerful item that was illegally implemented in the game. Incredible defensive attribute, it also has attack capacity... As soon as Lightbringer managed to escape, he reported that he had been reported or bug and claimed that he did not know that the shield had entered illegally... but I think that this item really did not exist in Tibia...

The only item that existed in Tibia and was initially illegally introduced was the Magic Longsword, Magic Longsword.gif,  introduced by Arieswar and Taghor. It was in 2003 when the sword was seen again before subsequently starting to wander again...

At the moment the sword has been seen in Refugia, in the house of Gaby-chan, although she herself says that she is not her true owner, but that the real property is of the couple formed by two great legends of Tibia, Bubble and Nietzsche.

The current holder of such a wonder would be Honken, of Celesta, who would have paid at least 450 KK, however this has not been confirmed.

I have two friends ex game masters (One, Etien on Gladera) and they believe in the existence of the item, the problem with this is the time nobody thinked on save a proof of the existence on a randon item in a small game. I belive it existed on the past.
