now this is a good sport.

i rly dont see the use of this shield though man paladin has a skill called holy shield that makes getting max block so easy you dont need to worry about 30/20 block mods, and spirit exists and is 2 all skills not just to defense auras.

its definitely an intersting shield tho this is a much better question than most ppl ask when posting stupid random items in a non trading forum, but yes in general if u post in our pvp forum about a trade ur gonna get trolled lmfao.


haha fair enough. thanks!

does a BiS rare pally shield have 30-20 on it given they hit max pts to holy shield?


what is BiS?

im so lost by this question lmfao.

his shield is more nifty than 80%++ of the random junk we see posted here though, if spirit didnt exist then itd be an okay lil shield.

2pcomb/30/20/2 high def or erep grim would be cool for zeal
2pcomb/30/20/2/ed/ar crown shield/ akaran targe would be cool too
Artisan crown shield/ akaran targe of deflecting with knights mod would be interesting

with an A targe, and lvl 10 holy shield, a pally need 75 dex to hit MB.

tbh idk what level they use, but end of the day if ur shield has no 30-20 it takes 70-75 dex to hit mb. if it has 30-20 it takes 58 dex.

so a mod that's a suffix would need to beat out 12 stat pts to be worth it.

There really isn’t any mod thar beats 30/20 though… 5 rep and 20life are the only useful ones… maybe 17fhr.

17 fhr, 5 rep, 75% PLR might be the best 3 suffixes. DR and MDR don't seem as good by comparison.

so likely a 2 pcomb / +all res / 2 os (prefixes) 17fhr / 5 rep / 75% plr (suffixes) Ak Targe with ED/AR automods.

but in a lot of matchups 12 stat pts >>>>>>>> 75% plr.

just bored tbh and i like the idea of not needing 30-20 but still being best build.

jim's zealer had an eth-rep grim shield without 30-20 that works great.

for pure melee i could see why, cuz you're probably using dex on rings, dex on ammy

but for tvt, i dont see it
