My_Eggs Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 I've always wanted an Elsyian Sprit Shield and after staking for a little bit I was able to afford one. I'm just curious what the best places to use it at are. I'm maxed combat, 99 summon, 99 prayer, 99 range, and 99 mage. I have a Chaotic Rapier, Fury, Zerker (i), full armadyl, and the money to buy bcp and tassets if I sell the armadyl gear. 99 HP, Attack, Strength, Defence, Summoning, Ranged, Herblore, Prayer, Agility, Magic, Slayer, Fletching, Fishing, Woodcutting, Mining, and Thieving. Jagex'd out of my untrimmed hp cape on 6/14/2011. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Powerfrog Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 Ummm... Nex.Arma.Corp. (If you solo, goliath first 1/3rd of kill) That's pretty much it, you really want a d defender or arcane or deflector for almost anything else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mylez Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 Works well at all GWD and Nex. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ambler Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 Better off selling it for a pbody and Nexing with an eeks, though it works with full armadyl, you'll just get forced into tanking. :(Or you could just stake it and buy full pernix ^^My blog of EoC PvM, lols and Therapy.^^My livestream- Currently: Offline :(Offical Harpy Therapist of the Mad[hide=Lewtations]Barrows drops: Dharok's helm x2, Guthan's helm, Ahrim's top, Hood and skirt, Torag's hammers, Karils skirt, Karil's top, Torag's helm, Verac's skirt, Verac's Flail, Dharok's Platebody.Dag kings drops: Lost count! :wall:4k+ Glacors, 7 Ragefires, 4 Steadfasts, 4 Glaivens, 400+ shards![/hide] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Troacctid Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 You could use it in Castle Wars to help you tank. And Jad/Nomad/other one-off boss fights. Might be good in Fight Kiln too, I dunno. Also, I guess it's one of the best shields for when you need a shield to use your special shield abilities. Of course, anywhere Elysian is good, Divine is probably just better. Especially since you can use Penance to offset the prayer drain. Read my blog | Follow me on Twitter | Track my XP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AHappySeeker Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 Offensive bonuses generally trump it. Only place where you really need help with tanking is Nex. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hakaan Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 When I had an elysian and divine for a while (around a year ago) I didn't find either of them very useful. I tried both at most bosses (gwd, nex, even tds) but it didn't help much. I didn't even notice the damage reductions. Not to trash the shields, they're good, just not very useful. Come support my max total goal here. Briobe122's 10-step guide to staking:1. Get cleaned2. Vow to never stake ever again! (very important)3. welfare tds and get claws4. kill glacors til i get boots5. bandos ffa or more tds til i have around 50m6. realize that it is far too hard to rebuild using steps 3, 4, and 57. give up the vow to never stake again8. go back staking and make your bank back9. if you failed at step #8, Go back to step #110. if you succeed at step #8, you will eventually feel the need to make money for rich people stuff, have a bad day of staking, then get cleaned anywaysPain is just weakness leaving the body.

Aiel Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 When I had an elysian and divine for a while (around a year ago) I didn't find either of them very useful.

Not to trash the shields, they're good, just not very useful.because you "not noticing" is significant :rolleyes: DKs is the only place I can think of where its the 'best' (although elysian vs. arcane might be debatable) everywhere else it's basically just a worse divine or is beaten by defender/deflector. DK drops (solo/LS): 66 hatchets, 14 archer rings, 13 berserker rings, 17 warrior rings, 12 seerculls, 13 mud staves, 7 seers ringsQBD drops: 1 kite, 2 visages, 4 dragonbone kits, 3 effigies, lots of crossbow partsCR vs. CLS threads always turn into discussions about penis size....It's not called a Compensation Longsword for nothing.I've sent a 12k combat mission to have Aiel assassinated (poor bastard isn't even Pincers-tier difficulty).
