Definately difficult to price, and sometimes a lot harder to sell.

Can anyone give some basic break downs on what mods make a shield worth how much?

Tactics V. Strength, double dmg rdction, stance, constant, enchant, etc.

For instance is a 10 str req shield with -2 in stance worth the same as a 10 tactics shield with -2 in stance?

Also what is that single mod base price?

Obviously with the introduction of malignons shield prices have taken some hits, but the price on that shield is going up everyday, and it is tactics based.

I know I see people spamming shields everyday, some overpriced some underpriced. Thought maybe some of the shield experts might have some input here.

kind of like this:

Strength > Tactics
Requirements matter almost 5X

Best in Descending order:
+ HP Always
+ HP Enchanted
- 2 Dmg Enchanted
- 2 Dmg Stance
+ HP Stance (not possible over 30)
- 3 Dmg (10% Chance)
+ HP While Hexed
- 3 Dmg While Hexed

best Combos:
+ Health Always, -2 Enchanted
+ Health Always, -2 Stance
+ Health Enchanted, -2 Enchanted
+ 2/2 Enchanted/Stance

Single mod arent worth a ton alone, although health > dmg reduction
A health mod alone such as +45 enchanted or 30 always are worth alot alone, but is worth much much more with a reduction mod.

Best Shield Types:
Magmas
Eternal
Shadow
Tower/Defender
Tall
Aegis
