There are definitely a lot of bugs in this game, but you wouldn't know that until you tried different builds. I just got the spirit shield and clicked the shield, but it didn't work properly. I had the club and kept hitting the shield and the weapon seemed like it was working, however it wasn't causing any damage, only adding weak....this is quite unfortunate when you are trying to explore other ways of playing, only to be found with failure due to bugs in the game. I hope that this is all rememdied in the final product.
