hey everyone,

I'm here just for a question about exile base shield (vortex or zaka then?)
i see a lot about resa, but what if it has gz dmg ed and ar? is it still very good or no resa means a no-no?

depends what build is and who you intend to be fighting against. if you are just doing melee duels, don't need the 45 res and ed helps more. each base has different smite damage, so the choice for which shield is up to you, any elite base is viable. vortex is most sought after because it's the highest defense

for smite dmg: SR, avg base dmg slightly higher than all the other elite bases (46.5 vs 46)
for block: ST
for smite dmg consistency: kurast, base dmg range is 46-46 whereas other types can roll extremly high and low (e.g. vortex 5-87) and you don't get benefits from overkill dmg
for defense: vortex

thanks for both replies,
i poorly stated my question i think, but you responded it anyway
my question was more like... I didn't see any pala shield base eth with damage bonus to trade, is it charsi? is it not interesting in its own way? the best is both bonuses of course, but eth with both bonus on elite shield, it is less and less likely with every specific :'(
So the answer is yes, it's good but less sought after then so need to wait more to find the right buyer?
