Best shield skin for my Warrior?
Baron27
Hi everyone. I am attempting to get my Warrior setup with the most complimentry skins available. So far he is wearing Granite Citadel Ascended Plaitmail dyed white. He wields a Legendary Sword which compliments the armor very well. But the shield skin throws things off a little bit. Right now he has a Gloom Shield dyed white which match's the armor and sword, but it sticks out like a sore thumb. I was wondering if anyone knew of a shield that would better compliment my warrior. I can post images for better visualization. I want to be able to stick with the theme of my setup of all white, so the shield has to as dyable as the gloom shield. Charecters name is Xx H O L Y Xx and for RP he's a holy white knight fighting the demonic forces.

You'll have to decide that one for yourself. Here's a link to a page with links to all the shields available in GW. http://gw.gamewikis.org/wiki/Shield Good luck and happy shopping!

People RP in GW?
Equine Aegis would probably look best.

Try a darkwing defender dyed white or silver - would look really good with that armor IMO.

Aegis/shield of the wing or a Summit Warlord Shield maybe?

You RP with such a crappy name?
Go for a classic. Shield of the Wing.

I would go Ebonhand Aegis, or a Vabbian Defender (paragon)

However, the SotW might not go to well with the Legendary Sword because of the shield's size. I'd go with a Tall Shield.

I say Equine Aegis or Exalted. Exalted is still my personal favorite of all the skins, but Equine looks pretty nice too and seems to fit the bill for what you seek.
In the end its really going to be simply what you like. Try the wiki link.

Well you can help us by telling us if you use strength or tactics?
I would say that you should plated shield? Or you can go irredescent or diamond aegis.
But really i think gloom is the best skin

I had a similar problem when I got my warrior Vabbian armor. I used to roll with a nice Gloom Shield dyed white...then with the new armor....just looked wrong.
From the sounds it seems you're going for a "knightly" or "paladin" look. Try Shield of the Lion-you can get one as a collector item in Nightfall for both strength and tatics and dyes really nicely white. In addition it might have that look that you're going for.

For a classic look i agree shield of lion looks good.or the gothic defender although not as much of it actually dyes, it is a classic warrior skin, for something different diamond aegis is nice, i would even go skull shield.

The Reinforced Defender is pretty nice looking and sliver however it may be a Paragon only shield as I do not see it listed in the Wiki list.

Re: your avatar, Pan's Labyrinth was amazing, freaky as the thing in your avatar was.

Personally I prefer Tormented Shield.

I second the ideas already mentioned.
1. Shield of the Wing (craft one in the Central Transfer Chamber)
2. Summit Warlord Shield (they drop frequently in EOTN now)
They also have the proper size for your warrior.

A knight is best accompanied by his horse. Go for an Equine Aegis.

I don't know how you RP with that name, but I guess that part's up to you.

Tormented shield looks the best, it never seems to get old for me

I didn't realise my charecters name would cause people to post negative comments. I guess that's to be expected from any message forum.
I forgot to mention my warrior is strength based. Although the equine and the enamled are both really nice shields, I am afraid I wont be able to use them. I used to have a tormented shield but the purple sheen didn't match my armor color. I would use an Exhalted Aegis if the wing's were dyable. I think I will get either a SotW or a SotL and give them a try.
Thanks.

Sun and Moon shield for me. I guess I have a little exotic taste
Also trying to find one, but they are hard to come by from what I have seen.

My personal recommendation:
1. Tall shield dyed white
2. equine aegis dyed white if you prefer (they look fine without dye imo)
3. norn shield dyed white
4. shield of the wing/aegis
5. shield of the lion dyed white if you prefer

To those dissing him about his name: Maybe he didn't take this game too seriously, invested a lot of time in his character, and now loves it?

For a bit of a diff look try to find an Istani Shield, they dye white very nicely.

Edit: Damn I gotta go buy on of those now.
1 up and 2 down
I would say Terror Shield(requires texmod and a defender shield).

use a hammer, solve your problem

If you want the 'best' skin, then this is really an art preference thread. At best, we'd need a screenshot of your warrior to be able to think about what looks best.
