To make a Dragon square shield from scratch, you need to:

1. Get the quest points + levels required to complete the Legends Quest
2. Spend 750k on the right half of the shield
3. Get the left half from purely RNG chance
4. Smith the shield

A rune kiteshield takes FAR less time to acquire and is by no means a large downgrade because of the way defense stats work. As it stands, it's simply an inconvenient item that's used for the Hard Ardougne diaries, which is a shame because this iconic item is one of my favorite armor pieces in the entire game.

My recommendation is to just flatly give it the passive of having protection from dragon-fire. It does not provide nearly enough defense or utility to warrant the time and money it takes to get, which ends up making it "useless". To me, that's a boring use of this item and a waste of its potential. Also, the gap between the Anti-dragon shield and any of the visages could potentially be hundreds if not thousands of hours, and the square shield could be used as a fairly decent mid-game option when you want a decent defense bonus for fighting stronger variants of dragons such as rune/adamant dragons or Vorkath.

Is there any reason not to?

PS: [This all would of course extend to the Dragon Kiteshield as well; it is an absolute nightmare to make]

EDIT: I do see some comments about how items, especially old or outdated ones, don't NEED to be useful and that there are many examples of items in the game that have, over time, become more niche. And I'm not going to argue that point because its correct. I just also genuinely believe this is 1 of the few niche items that would be fun to update in a meaningful way for the game. That line of thinking isn't one i disagree with as a whole, but the entire point of this post is me NOT wanting this specific item to be in that category. Not every item needs a use but it'd be super neat if this sexy looking shield had one.

The grubs that follow into car phase used to despawn after a certain amount of time; This is not the case anymore, and they seem to remain infinitely.

The large grub that replaced the triple grubs, causes attack delay unlike all the other grubs.

Otherwise, W update.
