I used Wand of fire on Goblet Shield and Yendor, then used Burst of Flame on the flaming cloud and it destroyed the Goblet (or the Wand of fire creature did) :D I assume the Goblet is not that immortal with the right combination :D

Had a nice game with Fire Mage, sadly I cannot finish, killing the Yendor is not working :) So it's a little bug report, the game overall is awesome, keep it up!

I talked to Yendor, we called this game a draw :) 
As I know a little bit about coding , my assumptions are :

1. Either Goblet is bugged to be available to pickup for enemies, like enemies can pickup mushrooms or Wand of Fire summoned creature has this flaw to be able to pickup Goblet. Then something killed that enemy/summoned creature leaving blood path.

2.  Burst of Flame effect (exploding fire?) somehow messed up with Goblet Shield effect of breaking especially under flame cloud.

If you get a flame cloud over an object (flame storm, fire lizard, pyro turret etc), and use burst of flame, it deletes that object (most of the time). Can be done with all kinds of objects.

Waaah? I actually can't remember how the Goblet shield is implemented. I know its really really weird. I'll need to look more closely into this. 

From my vague recollection I swear the whole table is an object and the shield is a multi-tile invisible NPC sitting on top of it. I can't remember if the goblet as an item is actually on the table before you break the shield. If what Randoms saying is actually true across a wide range of objects then it might have destroyed the goblet section of the table while it was still an 'object' and before it had a chance to create the goblet 'item'.

I wonder if this has been a thing for a long time and no ones ever cast burst of flame directly on top of it since it was difficult to get flame clouds onto it.

This bug would have become a thing when burst of flames was changed to require a fire source, and destroyed it on use. 

The shield is an NPC, it shouts and agros. I tested, it doesn't delete items that are on the ground.
