Im talking about the S1 Shield Wall, and the tanking shield you get for 30sum gold after being exalted with Shattered Sun
Which shield would be better for tanking? The Shield Wall has more armor, stam, and res, but the Defender has better block, a dodge rating, and hit rating.
It all depends on if you have 490 defense or not. If you do i prefer the Dawnforged Defender. If not, get the badge shield that gives defense rating.
gladiators shield wall is really not a good tanking shield..it works if you dont have something decent but resilience is worthless after 490 defense. you wont use it it doesnt do a damn thing. the dawnforge defending has hit rating *threat per second and hit boost* and dodge rating* great for avoidance*..it is most definately a better shield then the s1 shield..s1 shield is not worth your time..also...you should check out the Shattered sun pendant of resolve..hit rating..expertise* huge tank stat* and the proc for aldor is 100 dodge rating for 10 seconds..scryer is 100 expertise rating for 10 seconds...amazing neck
