That's just plain wrong actually.


Items such as Copper Plate and Crystal Shield work absolutely fine in communions as slave buffs as long as you know how communions actually work. (and not just guess at how they work)

In the case with items, the slaves and masters (who are carrying the buff items) need to enter battle already formed in a communion. This is because slaves only receive buffs from a master if they are a slave before the master casts the buff spell. So with item buffs, this means using Slave and Master Matrixes in most cases.

Communion slaves, with a Slave Matrix each. And a communion master, with a Master Matrix, and for example a Copper Plate. Set-up in a reverse communion. Will result in the communion slaves having shock resistance from the Copper Plate.


This probably marks the last time I will be correcting or answering anything on these forums. As all the shiit spreading has just gotten too much for me now, especially without the help of the various banned/no longer posting members who regularly used to assist with the job. (thinking here mainly of Sombre and vfb)

But lch might be pleased to hear this, as I'll be using the Wiki from now on to post the correct answer to questions such as these in the future. Let us all hail the Wiki
