Do elemental shileds have a use anymore?

Now in the past I could have used an elemental shield to defend myself against magical users while beating them with combat.

 

But black dragonhide armor can sadly no longer be used that way. I learned by fighting greater demons that the only way I could kill a lot the same trip was to used ranged weapons, most notable harralander tars and a black salamander.

 

So does the elemental shield have any use anymore? I doubt it does as armor that used to be helpful against magic users no longer are.

Required for fighting Skeletal wyverns unless you have another form of protection (DFS, other EW shields). Used in some treasure trails. That's about it.

In that case I'm keeping it in my bank, because I do know for a fact that Kuradal will eventually give me that slayer assignment again.
