Heavy round too slow in my opinion. I always preferred the knightly heater shield when playing on my 1h shielder. However, I have recently come to realize that the best shield is by far the leather covered round shield. It is currently the only shield I use anymore since its so damn sexy.
No, I am totally not just saying this because it is one of the ONLY shields I can use right now...
I would pay good money to see this shield buffed to the ~4 shield difficulty tier. The model is too dang fine for its current low requirement (read: low usefulness) placing.
Eh. I play with a board shield so like 90% of the other shields are faster than that. 81 speed OP.
Heavy round has everything imo. Its decent with speed, its round so it has best coverage, and its not so heavy that it sucks ass like the huscarl shield but it holds up well with good armor and hp. Its a great shield.
You guys clearly have no taste in shields.
The top five power ranking goes like this;
1. Yellow practice shield
2. Green practice shield
3. Steel buckler
4. Hide covered round shield
5. Fur covered sield
No blue practice shield? List is flawed. Red practice shield sucks though.
