<br />
'''Aegis''' is a tier-4 [[aura]] released in the third batch of [[Members Loyalty Programme]] rewards. It is the first Tier 4 aura, and costs 84,000 [[Membership Loyalty Points]] (while 84,000 is the biggest price tag, many tier 4 auras are effectively upgrades and hence require a larger total expenditure). It is a shield that can [[damage soaking|block]] up to 10% damage, based on players' [[Defence]] levels. This functions in the same way as armour's damage-soaking stat, however there is no minimum amount of damage needed for this to take effect. The absorption rate is also consistent with the player's level. For example, at 99 Defence, if the player incurs 50 damage, he or she will only be hit for 45 and 5 will be shown as absorbed. The animation however, will only occasionally activate.<br />
<br />
The aura will remain activated for 30 minutes, or until it has soaked up a certain amount of damage (the amount is currently not known, but is considerable), and has a recharge time of 5 hours. When the aura has absorbed the maximum amount of damage, the message displayed in the chatbox is "Your aegis shield has absorbed all the damage it is able to absorb, and has dissipated."<br />

==Trivia==<br />
*Aegis is a reference to [[wikipedia:Aegis|the shield]] created by Hephaestus, and worn by Zeus and daughter Athena in Greek Mythology.<br />
*Aegis also means protection or support.<br />
*Aegis currently has no icon in the Adventurers' log; instead, it shows "aegis" in a strange bold font.<br />
