the items effect

this item doesn't have any lock up ability it only has +25 max health on the wearer and its a set item.--The preceding unsigned comment was added by Rocketlawnchair (talk) • contribs) 03:20, 1 October 2010

Please sign name with 4 tildes and also I hope you like that I fixed it feel free to make changes.CANPoo 02:30, 1 October 2010 (UTC)


Damage

Is there a reason this section is here? It just seems like a pointless link. TheMagister 16:43, 1 October 2010 (UTC)

Possibility

It could be possible if this came from the same crocodile as Ol' Snaggletooth, as they both come from crocodiles.

Obviously, it is a possibility. Also you should sign your name at the end of your post using 4 tildes(~) Pierow 05:31, 7 March 2011 (UTC)TC370

Introduction

The introduction claims that "allowing them to survive otherwise fatal attacks such as headshots." while the set makes it so you cant die from headshots, this item will only protect a spy from an ambassador headshot (102 damage) which they could already survive, a sniper rifle uncharged and a huntsman headshot both do 150 damage (the amount of health a sniper with Darwin's Danger Shield has)

So unless there are some unannounced benefits I am unaware of, I am removing this either misleading or irrelevant line -Murdats 08:45, 3 October 2010 (UTC)

Was that any excuse to remove the line concerning backstabs? Please be aware of the rest of the article when choosing to delete things.--Focusknock 11:15, 3 October 2010 (UTC)
If you get hit with a head shot(arrow or bullet) your health goes down to 1hp. if your shot again in the head it will be a head shot. so the amount of damage per head shot doesn't count it just takes you down to 1 hp. its not miss leading. might need to add in the 1hp survival.Rocketlawnchair 16:53, 3 October 2010 (UTC)
the fact that your health is reduced to 1hp is interesting, and unexpected and definitely should be noted. The line about the backstab seems pointless in the context of the health bonus, I see what you were trying to get at now but perhaps a better way to phrase it would be "Unlike the razorback, Darwin's Danger Shield provides no protection from backstabs" -Murdats 17:26, 3 October 2010 (UTC)

Possible Name Reference Trivia

I did see that there was a note of possible reference to Charles Darwin himself. I would like to propose a further note of trivia, the Darwin Awards. The award is given to people who, as the site states, "do a service to Humanity by removing themselves from the gene pool". I thought this was interesting, but i want some other views on the matter before hand. -= M-NINJA Burger Gib.png =- 23:46, 21 December 2010 (UTC)

Probably Charles. Charles Darwin was an Englishman but "honorary" Australian. [1] There's the city named after him. Pierow 05:36, 7 March 2011 (UTC)

I don't see how it's a reference. Sure, the name fits, but how does the weapon imply the Sniper removed himself from the gene pool?--Focusknock 11:17, 7 March 2011 (UTC)
I think they meant that the reference was to the item being a shield against winning yourself an award, as the increased health would prevent you from dying in stupid ways (falling off the battlements in 2fort after an ambassador headshot, for example) Silentspring 04:53, 8 June 2011 (UTC)

Obvious problem with the picture

Hi. This is the first time I come on this page, and I really was amazed by the size of the picture showing the item, on the right side. I don't want to make mistakes, so I demand to someone competent to fix it, please. Jay 20:20, 19 March 2011 (UTC)

health table

I think someone should make a health table for the danger shield for when the user has it one and its health and when he has the shield equipped and the users health. THE3STOOGES 04:53, 10 April 2011 (UTC)
