Originally teased in the [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1PfOq5vix78&feature=player_detailpage#t=4660.7 November 2016 Freshly Picked Vana'diel livestream] and introduced in the [http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxi/threads/52095-Feb.-10-2017-%28JST%29-Version-Update?p=591912&viewfull=1#post591912 February 2017 Version Update], '''Escutcheons''' are classified as the<br> "Ultimate Synthesis Equipment" by the developers. |

The Escutcheons were meant to replace the [[Kupo Shield]], while at the same time offering unique bonuses. While the Kupo Shield has one extra level of skill, as well as offers a bonus to every craft, Escutcheons offer a higher rate of High Quality synthesis results while at the same time offering a bonus to crafting speed. |

There are four phases in which one must progress in order to fully complete a shield. Each phase offers a unique challenge which consist of countless hours spent crafting and gathering various materials to finally synthesize the shield each time from its component parts. The quest line is similar across all eight crafts, but obviously have their own unique aspects due to varying recipes. This being said, a few steps in some crafts are more tedious than other similar steps in other crafts. |

you will need to raise your craftsmanship from 0-100% again. Unlike previous phases, repeating the same synth over and over is not the best way to raise craftsmanship. You should concentrate on completing the Craftsmanship Upgrade objectives on your shield as much as possible, Although you will still receive craftsmanship with no conditions met 0.15% for HQ1 0.20% for HQ2 0.25% for HQ3 and with conditions met 0.10% for NQ 0.30% for HQ1 0.40% for HQ2 and 0.50% for HQ3 so repeating the same cheap synth is still an option.<br /> |

Performing a synthesis that does not match up with your objective (even if there is none) may cause you to gain a level of "Synthesis Success Down" added to your shield. This can happen regardless if your synthesis is an NQ, HQ or a break result. This amount will cap at -30%. |

The only way to get out of this hole and lower the "Synthesis Success Down" amount is to follow the bonus objective on the shield. This will remove one "Synthesis Success Down" level effect for each successful bonus completion.<br /> The bonuses do not always change every completion, but are highly likely to. The bonuses have been observed to remain the same for 10 or more synths. |

There exists in the game -1 versions of all phases of the Escutcheon except for the final form. In the past, it was theorized that failing an Escutcheon upgrade synthesis would result in the -1 shield being obtained, but this has concluded to be false. Another theory was that they are intended to be used in the future to "skip" phases, perhaps Bonanza rewards. |
||
In actuality, these shields exist in case a player somehow disposes or loses their phase of a shield, but wishes to recover it. Because of the way a GM's '''One Time Account Recovery''' tool works, items with augment data on them cannot be recovered directly into a player's inventory. Instead, these items were added so that they can be generated on a player's character and they will not have to start over on the shield upgrade process. |
|||
Trading these -1 shields to [[Mewk Chorosap]] will result in her "repairing" the shield in a brief cutscene, and then providing you with that stage's base shield with no progress made on that stage. Additionally, any [[Records of Eminence]] completed objectives will be reset. |
