Clicky Named items

Randomly generated Clickies can also drop as quest rewards* in a few older chains, end-rewards from older chains (such as Water Works), and, very rarely, from chests in some quests. They can also occasionally be found for sale in the Three Finger Thad's Guildship amenity. Since these are randomly generated from a wide list of spell effects, the chances for a Shield clicky are appropriately small.

(* Notably Stand Your Ground and The Bookbinder Rescue)
