Putting shields in multiple quick slots?

    [​IMG] Is there a way to put a shield into more than one of the quick weapon boxes? I have a fighter that uses a Bastard sword one handed and has a magic shield, but I also want to use the shield with my blunt weapon and can't seem to find a way to put the shield in both combos. Right now I go to the inventory screen and remove the shield from the sword's offhand slot and move it to the offhand for the blunt weapon. It is a pain in the arse to keep moving it back and forth like that. If anyone knows a way to set this up I would appreciate it.

    Thanks

    [​IMG] Put a second shield in the other quick slot along with your second weapon. It might not be as good as your primary shield but it's better then nothing.

    Unfortunately Lady Victoria is right.
    There is no way you can put a shield in multiple shield slots (unless you have duplicates)
    The same goes for weapons - I came across the same problem as you when trying to dual wield a weapon against weaker enemies and then switch to using a shield with the same weapon against tougher enemies.
    Using multiple shields is also not too practical if your character has limited strength, by putting a shield in each slot will greatly affect how much you can carry. (from memory a shield weighs about 7-10lbs) :(
