The Shield System

[Zkieve]

What situations are best suited for the diff shield types: Scutum, Hoplon, Kite?

I haven't fought any NMs yet but have been using scutum for everything which is basically just tanking in SP/Leve parties. What situations would make hoplon preferable to the higher block rate and higher defense of scutum? And are there any situations that a kite shield would be optimal?

leves and easy stuf the shield with +7 atack.
When your high enough get the vintage shield .I think is in a class on its own and its well the best currently in game, even over the scutum.

You don't really need Phalanx for hate control really.

this 100%.....
