the extra block is nice, though it is such a small sheild when equipped.

Kommentar von Thottbot

best shield for a tank ive seen so far...

Kommentar von Thottbot

Why does blizzard have it add 18 block to your shield? Wouldn't this be exactly the same as just giving the shield 57 block?

Kommentar von Thottbot

The passive portion won't be modified by Shield Discipline. I'm sure they did this to insure that shield wouldn't be "over-powered".

Who drops this?

Strength and Shield disc increase block amount of the shield. By putting in an on-equip bonus this limits potential benefit of strength or Shield Disc, since you could block such a high amount of damage with it.

The +2% to block stacks with Shield Specialzation though, so if you have 5% base, +5% shield spec, and this shield on you'll have 12% chance to block.

Not a bad shield in any respect but for a Paladin a more solid "stat sheild" is the Sacred Protector from the Blightcaller quest. For ultimate RETRIBUTION pWnage, take Ramstein's Crest of Retribution, add a thorium shield spike and toggle retribution aura... with this in effect, every block can yield up to 80 extra damage... pretty nice :).

Kommentar von Thottbot

This is by far the best blue sheild in game.

Lets not argue who is best for because Paladins and Warriors always fight over sheilds as well as weapons. Theres Pala tanks and Warrior tanks.
Both protection classes can tank the same whether using physical ability or spells.

Who has seen this drop? How many runs do we need for one?

Use the +2% block enchant and this sheild could be great :O)

The reason that other shield has more tank points than this one is because it has stamina while this one does not. In the description (of the addon) it says "Block is a more complicated variable that depends on how hard and how often a mob hits and personal skills, thus is not considered in this benchmark." Therefore all that is being considered is the armor and any stats. The extra 60 armor is less beneficial than 10 stamina in terms of damage you can take.

Obviously if you do the math considering block's in the equation, after about 5 blocks you have made up for the lack of stamina.

Not even close to the best blue shield in the game, but it's not bad. I like the looks, the skin/model are really cool. Even though it's small, I think it looks much more realistic and less cartoonish than most shields. Problem is, this shield really has no stats, and block is crap for mitigation even with the bonuses this shield offers. The only thing I really like about it is that the 2% to block lets me pop Revenge a lot more often, which equates to a lot more threat, especially when I have multiple mobs on me. Still, I'd much prefer a Draconian Deflector.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Draconic Deflector is very overrated. You need as much +defense as it takes to mitigate most of the crits and then +armor and block to slow your now steadily incoming damage. You can make up the +10 defense on the Draconic Deflector through your armor choices without dipping into Zul'Gurub. Can you do the same for block value or block % chance? Nope! This shield and the Intricately Runed Shield are both better than the Draconic Deflector unless you are tanking a mob which uses fire attacks. Drac Deflector is an excellent resist shield but both of the shields I mentioned are better at mitigating physical damage.

Kommentar von Thottbot

guess you have no idea about this shield.. 2% extra chance to block together with the 10% from the protec spec shield specilisation together : 12 % to block.. i dont see draconian deflector do that.
I do admit if you go MC draconian deflector is better for the Fire resistance but this shield is a lot better against melee attacks for sure.
also looks less good :(

Kommentar von Thottbot

Even fire resist requirements aside, the Draconian Deflector is easily a superior shield compared to the Barrier Shield.

Take a look at the facts first:

1) Deflector adds 32 more armor.
2) Barrier adds 17 more block value.
3) Deflector adds 7 more stamina.
4) Barrier increases block chance by 1.6% more.
5) Deflector increases damage mitigation by 1.2% (outside of armor).

10 defense = .4% chance more to dodge, .4% chance more to parry, .4% chance less to get critically struck, and .4% chance more to block. Add the dodge, parry, and less crit together for 1.2% damage mitigation.

So assuming 17 more block value cancels out 7 more stamina and 32 more armor...the comparison boils down to having 1.6 percentage points to block chance vs. 1.2% more damage mitigation.

Damage mitigation wins easily.

Got his shield like 2 weeks ago and I don't mind it one bit. Nice off tank shield for a shammy. Granted my 12 year old sister could proly design a better image then that it's still nice to have. I try not to look at it though.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

i got that shield, normally,on mobs lvl 60, i block 50 dmg, and now i block 68 dmg.

I love the fact that it looks like a small wooden shield. My warrior is starting to look like the ugliest dude in the game. rofl. ugly = hard :)

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I believe it has to do with warrior ability called Shield Discipline.
Shield Discipline doubles the amount of damage your shield blocks. If they had a value of 60 there then shield discipline would make you block 90+bonus from your STR.
Since they have value of 40 + 20 passive block I'm guessing Shield Discipline would count it as 40+%50=60 block then + the passive ability of the shield. That would make your block 80 instead of 90.

i have a lvl 5 gray shield on one of my alts...it looks the same as that one lol...go blizzard art team!

Kommentar von Allakhazam

A better name for this would be Hymen.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I got this the other night in Dire Maul. though the stats are nice the artwork us CRAP... looks like a small wooden sheild....noting special

Kommentar von Allakhazam

lets see a pic

Kommentar von Allakhazam

"Passive: Increases the block value of your shield by 18."

Err . . . being that this item IS a shield, and you can only have one shield equipped at a time, why did they add that passive? Why not just add 18 to the block number itself?
