Best dung shields for bossing

Featured Replies

I've saved up a bunch of dung tokens, and I'm thinking about getting one or more of the dung shields. Which shields are useful for which bosses? I'd like to know the best shield/off hand weapon to use at Bandos, Sara, Arma, Zammy, Nex, DKS, Corp, and the Fight Kiln.

 

Assume I have access to all weapons and armor, except no Nex armor or spirit shields.

 

Any other tips on the dung shields are welcome.

Bandos: Cmaul, or defender, or dfs really.

Sara: probably eeks if ranging, maul if meleeing.

Zammy: eeks if ranging (tanking mage w/ melee pray), cks if meleeing probably.

Nex: eeks. Some teams take deflector.

Dks: dfs. Some people prefer fsk/cks but I'm not confident the cost is even worth it.

Corp: no shield. Possibly eeks > defender for the goliath stage (if solo/duo) but again not confident.

Kiln: none really worth it but fsk probably best since you mage a lot, along with defender. Deflector is possible but iirc tokkul-zo doesn't stack?

Tormented demon drops: twenty effigies, nine pairs of claws, two dragon armour slices and one elite clue | Dagannoth king drops: two dragon hatchets, two elite clues, one archer ring and one warrior ring

Glacor drops: four pairs of ragefire boots, one pair of steadfast boots, six effigies, two hundred lots of Armadyl shards, three elite clues | Nex split: Torva boots | Kalphite King split: off-hand drygore mace

Eeks is good for nex, corp, glacors, jad, armadyl...

 

CKS is good for nothing. (There is no situation where the slightly higher defense is more useful than a dragon defender or DFS, except range vs range pvp, such as staking)

 

Farseer is good for nothing, unless you use it as a free arcane, but arcane is cheap anyway.

 

I'd recommend rigour and all the weapons except maybe cls and staff before any shield, though. (And surgebox above eek if you want to kill glacors)
