Whats your spear + shield combo?
knives
I'm in the market for green spears / shields atm and am just wondering what you use in your builds?
Noisy Ninj4
I often use a heavily tactics-based build, so I'm looking at getting a Sunreach's Shield.
Darkpower Alchemist
I use The Prayer Of The Forgotten and Shagu's Anthem on my paragon. I also have a few other spears,including the Darksong. Furious spears are what I favor due to the builds I use currently.
Kakumei
Finally got myself a Shrieking Spear, and I can't fathom using anything else. For a shield, I used the Command-based Forgotten shield.

I just picked up a req9 caommand diamond aegis..... its all I use now.... that along with my max gold crenellated spear with furious mod...

Depends greatly on my builds at the time...
When my paragon is setup for dmg dealing, using several adrenaline skills, i use a Furious/15^50 spear (Shrieking Spear) and a Command shield (collector shield, req9, +30hm, -5(20%) shield -or- Shagu's Anthem). This setup obviously allows maximum spear dmg, adrenaline gain, and since i often us Command in my dmg builds, shield fits too...
When my paragon is setup as group support, using energy reliant shouts/chants, i use a Furious/+5 energy spear (Prayer of the Forgotten) along with a Motivation shield (Wandalz's Refuge). This setup allows me to benefit from both adrenline gain and the extra +5 energy since paragon support may use both sources...
Any other build type, usually fits well with either equipment from either of the previous 2 setups.
Cheers!

I use the Prayer of the Forgotten, and a Diamond Aegis that I happened to find (my paragon was quite pleased with it's discovery).

moaix... is it command or motivation?

Vamp Spear, and Elemental Spear. No need for zealous with GFTE spam, furious is still pretty meh, and sundering sucks as much as ever. 15^50 as always, no reason not to. I have a +5e spear on swap incase Agressive Falls for some reason and I need some quick energy to get it running again.
JoeKnowMo
Cruel 15^50 Nightmare Spear + 30 HP w Wandalz Refuge or Vabbian Bastion (9 Command).
Prayer of the Forgotten and Gingerbread Focus when energy needed.
Trying to get Shakor's firespear for the silencing mod (use w Awe methinks).

I have 4 weapon combinations:
1. Prayer of the Forgotten and Shagu's Anthem (used for most command builds)
2. Shocking Spiraling Spear of Fortitude and Vabbian Defender of Fortutide (used for a motivation build incorporating Conjure Lightning)
3. Shocking Spiraling Spear of Fortitude and Briahn's Guidance (used for a command build incorporating Conjure Lightning)
4. Prayer of the Forgotten and a Aureate Aegis of Fortitude (used for a motivation build as P/E with Blazing Spear and Steam)
I also have a Darksong but...meh...not used that in a looong time.
I usually try to use +5 energy spears as most of my builds are not attack based...I tend to use more shouts and chants than attack skills...maybe only taking 2, sometimes 3, attack skills per build.
Onto my Aureate Aegis...it currently has a Armor +10 (vs Blunt Damage) on it...but I'd like to change this...I'm not seeing me taking much blunt damage in the game. What would it be best to change this to? I was considering Armor +10 (vs Slashing Damage) but not 100% sure. I want an Armor +10 (vs Something) mod on this one as I currently don't have a shield like that.

Still have to experiment with several spears before I make up my mind which one Id like to use. Im planning on using a ritualist focus instead of a shield

4. Prayer of the Forgotten and a Aureate Aegis of Fortitude (used for a motivation build as P/E with Blazing Spear and Steam) Hmm Beaver you just gave me a slight idea of new fun builds. I use a Furious Suntouched Spear of Fortitude (best looking skin imo) and Shagu's Athem. Both are for Command and Leadership builds. I use an Aureate Aegis of Fortitude for motivation builds... I am still looking for a nice spear skin to match it up with my Aureate.
thetechx
i use either courage of the forgotten or luhlu's spear and as for the sheild waldaz's refuge or shagu
and i have also noticed that with most of the enimies i face luhlu's spear does more dmg then courage

Command set-
Vampiric Brass Spear of Fortitude (15^50, 3/1, +30)
Reinforced Defender of Fortitude (+1 Command 20%, +30)
Motivation set-
Furious Brass Spear of Fortitude (+5, 10%, +30)
Aureate Aegis of Fortitude (+1 Motivation, +30)
I've found these 2 sets to be ideal... Love the +1 on the shields, since shout-spamming is key for any para build. Since paras are rarely targeted (except for perhaps melee ToF tanks), any other shield inscription is pretty wasteful. Oh, and black dye on these shield skins = sex.

The shields:
1. Iridescent Aegis of fortitude (command) -5/20 +30 (thanks to Celestial Beaver for this one).
2. Diamond Aeigis (motivation) which has the same mods as the other, but im hoping to get a +1 motivation mod for the shield at some point.
As for the spears:
1. Prayer of the Forgotten for non offensive builds.
2. Luluh's Spear for fighting anything with high physical defence or with a weakness to fire.
3. The Bloodspear for offensive builds.

Using Prayer of the Forgotten and Iridescent Aegis for Command. Switch out a collector shield for Motivation, when I need to run that.
Marverick
These two I use for damage dealing.
Vamp 15^50 Nightmare of Fort
Shocking 15^50 Nightmare of Fort
Prayer of the Forgotten - use for most support builds.
I then use these shields:
Diamond Aegis (Command) +30hp/-5 20%
Iridescent Aegis (Motivation) +30hp/some other random mod, can't afford another -5/20% atm
Ancient Shield (Command) +29hp/+10 Piercing - for FoW spidering
Vamp 15^50 Nightmare of Fort
Shocking 15^50 Nightmare of Fort
Prayer of the Forgotten - use for most support builds.

Diamond Aegis (Command) +30hp/-5 20%

DemonSpawn
I use the adrenaline-based "Go for the Eyes!" build. I'm guessing I should use Furious for this as far as spears go, but as for shields, should I use a +30HP/+1 Command shield, or a +30HP/-5 with 20% chance? Since I'm utilizing Command enough to have it at 16, I figure +1/20% can be good but I'm not sure.
Paragon Of Myrodin
I currently use a Para with adrenaline attacks and tactics based buffs so...
Furious Tribal Spear of Defense or Fortitude and Tarnen's Shield
The Shrieking Spear is effectively the same spear but green

I use a req 7 command shield, which is nice because I never have enough points in command to meet the req otherwise.
free_fall
Started with the CE Fiery, stepped up to Luluh's, which I use on occassion, but mostly use Prayer of the Forgotten and -5/20% +30H collectors (Mot) (Deadel, dyed red), after trying and liking the Shrieking my W was lucky enough to have dropped for him; prefer the +5E of the Prayer over the 15^50.
Mekkakat
Wendz Refuge as my main shield here and there Prayer of the Forgotten.. as far as spear.. i dont use a green other than maybe Euhaus Spear 9err.. however you spell his name)... but i never use it really..
i use (my fav skin) a 15^50 broadheaded 20/20 +30 spear, zealous version, and a Fiery version (3 in total), with a nice Vabbian Longbow for pulling in the last spot

Cruel Spear +Fortitude since I use deep wound skills a lot.

I use shields that have the -5 damage 20% chance every time, doesn't matter if its a green or gold. For spears, I use either a Shrieking Spear or a gold Spear I modded with a Furious 10% when I'm running an adrenaline heavy build.
