Best shield for Paladin above lvl 180 onwards?

Question

anyone know what shield should i be getting above 180 onwards for RP? i dont think i'll be using imbuements as well

Answer 1

• Until level 199 you can use Great Shield  (Def: 38) or the cheaper Mastermind Shield  (Def:37)
• From 200 to 299, you should use Gnome Shield  (Def: 38, Physical +6%, Energy +8%, Ice -2%, Shielding +2)
• From 300+, you should use Falcon Escutcheon  (Def: 40, Physical +7%, Fire +15%)

P.S: Using shield as a paladin is bad, you should use diamond arrows instead. But if you really want to use a shield, those are the best options.

Using arrows with 20 distance level is kinda risky and useless without charms there imo
also its all about hands, eq and druid which might mas res/sio you to survive in box even on 180 level
Edit: dunno why i think we speak about prison XD but its only one spawn where he might use shield :D

I must agree here with fire_draggon, paladin is just not a blocker, with shield he would literaly be useless on the attack. And my opinion is that a paladin is much more useful as an active attacking member of the party, with diamond arrows and bow, than a blocker for the ms and ed to kill.

Well in past when I was hunting at Prison -3 where on middle you have to lure from 2 rooms we stay on 2 blockers I did dmg by ava and mas san had 8 monsters on me same as ek.  there is no other hunting place where paladin should use shield
