LLD pally shields, a guide in the making

This is a rough draft of a reference guide for lld paladin shields. I'm putting up a rough draft first so I can get feedback and post a clean one when it's all said and done. Remember that this is a work in progress and I'll be adding more content, notably blocking at levels other then 30 and if there's any interest I may do this for other classes.

Paladins starting attributes
Strength: 25
Dexterity: 20
Vitality: 25
Energy: 15
1 Vitality point gives 3 Life

Fallen's Throwing Barb Guide v1.05 said:
Total Blocking = (Blocking x (Dexterity - 15)) / (Character Level x 2)
Blocking = A total of the Blocking on all of your items
Re-arranging this equation to find out the dexterity needed
((Total Blocking x (character level x 2)) / the shields blocking value) + 15 = total dexterity needed
Code:
Shield Name        Defense      Minimum Strength    Dex for max block at 30
