    Something to do with Underground. Level 40, kill 10 hunters, bla bla. I forget.

    Hang on.

    Here it is.

    Damn, that's easy, assuming the 'reach level 10' is retroactive. I am not making up another character and working them through to level 30 to get some kind of gun skin.

    ...the article suggests that most of them are NOT retroactive.

    If that's the case, I say 'That's silly' and won't even bother.

    I mean, I can understand the 'complete all legendaries' and the like not being retroactive, but 'collect all Exotics' NOT being retroactive?

    [Faye Lau] No. Just....no.

    So July shields are finally up?

    And yeah some I might never do......am not playing this game to death though with the woeful RNG trying to get say a showstopper to drop. I barely log in lately as it is.

    I have played for over 2 years, with 4 characters, I have accomplished all of the requirements that they lists for all of the Shields. Play TD just to have fun with friends now, TD2 is on the bubble and not a must have for my future purchases. If there plan is for me to replay the last 2 years of efforts to get some shield I might not need. I have no plans of starting a new character for a shield that I might not need. I am playing for fun.

    I’m on Xbox and it’s telling me I have 12 hrs until my shields are available. Am I missing something?

    Surely ones like "collect all exotics" will be retroactive. Id say less than 5% of the base could pull that off if not. Now if there is one to collect 50 Skull gloves or Thompson's, i think i could get that done pretty quick!!
