Are there any shields that give + on Energy?

Just curious on this one as I've yet to see a shield myself that gives a bonus to energy the energy pool.

I don't think shields give a +energy bonus. But then again, I've never really searched specifically for that

I believe there is a Runic Shield with the following stats available from a collector in the Eastern Frontier (exit from Frontier Gate):

+6 Armor (Req. 4 Tactics)
+5 Energy

Just head southeast towards the portal into Pockmark Flats, as he's about 1/3 of the way there.

Edit: Confirmed from the Collector Locations thread:
Quote:
Pockmark Flats, South road from Frontier gate on a hill top
Fytch – 3 Fetid Carapace
Jeweled Chakram eng +6 Armor +5 (while enchanted) Health +45 (req 5 inspiration magic) Blue Item
Divine Symbol eng +6 Improves casting speed using divine favor skill Improves skill recharge using divine favor skill (20% chance) (req 5 Divine favor)
Truncheon cold dmg 3-4 (req 5 death magic)
Flame Artifact eng +6 armor +5 (while enchanted) health +45 (while enchanted) (req 5 fire magic) Blue Item
Crimson Carapace Shield eng +5 armor 6 (req 4 tactics)
Waterwand cold 3-4 (req 3 water magic)

Aren't there foci that have +armor? You could use one of those.

Perhaps toastgodsupreme has a warrior build with tactics skills that require a shield, like Defensive Stance.

Plus, foci don't look as menacing like a big-ass shield.

That's an interesting shield, I never knew that +energy one existed. It's a nice alternative to my flame artifact for my W/E. The sight of a warrior in full platemail skillfully swinging an impressive sword while clutching a small stick is a strange spectacle. I know this since I am that man.

I do have a +Energy shield, but as I progress through the game it has been becoming far less useful.

That's what I am using on my W/E - have yet to to find a (strength based) shield which matches that (plus from what I've seen the +16AL applies all over whereas the shield AL is only the front 120°)...

Does anyone have a screenshot of what it looks like? I've never seen anyone using one (the prisim that is).

thats a hack of an off-hand item! Monk benefits from it the most.

8 armour, 8 energy?

I'd rather the warrior with 16 armour and 5 energy.
And I can't believe the ranger only gets 10 armour off it with no boost to the energy gain - that's wimpy - if it were +10 armour with an extra bonus vs elemental maybe, but 6 AL less than a warrior gets with nothing else to make up for it? Especially as it is an off hand item on a class with a basically mandatory 2 handed item, so you're an odd Ranger if you ever get to use it. Wow, gimp me more!

Where can this Chimeric Prism be found? Or was it just a random drop?

The shield is custom which means pre-order item.

It was the European pre-order item - imo, the best out of the lot
