==Notes==
*Other items with this appearance:
** [[Canthan Targe]]
* Originally it had a slightly different skin than the one that was eventually introduced into the game.
* This item marks the first in-game reference to [[Cantha]], over one year before the release of ''[[Guild Wars Factions]]'' on April 28, 2006.
** However, there is no official lore connecting it to this continent, and it is neither displayed anywhere nor equipped by any NPC.
* This skin was exclusive to this pre-order item until [[Feedback:Game updates/20250409|April 15, 2025]], when it became [[Canthan Targe|available as rare loot]] as part of the 20th [[Anniversary Celebration]].
