Just so you know, I believe the highest defense shield would be a perfect 15% ED superior Troll Nest with 201 defense, and it can get 3 sockets. No other non-ethereal base shield can hit 200 def, let alone pass it.I'm looking for a high ish defense shield (around 200+) with 3 sockets (non-magical of course). I would also like the shield to have a low strength requirement, and to have between 40 and 50% block rate. Please, post what ya have below. You can have an item of your choice off of this list

ALMOST anything is up for grabs on that list for a shield that I would like!
Thanks~
First: Is it non-magical? I need it for a runeword. Secondly, I think the Arachnid Mesh is a bit much for a triple socketed shield lol. Can you choose something else? *Notes that the Arachnid Mesh is worth a HR+* Also, not to mention, the Mesh I have is extremely close to being perfect, so it increases it's value further.. Let's discuss this though, because I'm interestedSuperior Troll Nest
11% Enhanced Defense
193 Defense
3 Sockets
I'll take Arachnid Mesh for it.

Well, I like the stats on that shield BUT the only downfalll about Larzuk is the fact that his sockets are completely random. I've taken an item he should have put 3 sockets on and he only gave it 1.. It was really annoying because it wasted my last socket (on my main account at least lol). If you'd be willing to socket it and confirm that it has 3 sockets on it (and non magical of course), we can arrange a tradeI have a 198 defense troll's nest (14% enhanced defense). It's not socketed, but Larzuk would put 3 sockets into it. Let me know if you're interested.
Larzuuk gives out sockets according to item level. For instance if you found a crystal sword in act 2 normal, it will only get three sockets, but finding the same crystal sword in hell will give it the full 6.Well, I like the stats on that shield BUT the only downfalll about Larzuk is the fact that his sockets are completely random.

What Asrrin said. This one came from the Pits in Hell. It'll socket for 3. I don't have socket quests to spare though, so you'd have to take my word for it.Well, I like the stats on that shield BUT the only downfalll about Larzuk is the fact that his sockets are completely random.

Hmm.. Well, here's my final proposition: If you'd be willing to run an account through the things so you can get 3 sockets, I'd be willing to give you 3 items on the list of your choice (except the Arachnid Mesh Belt, and the Necromancer Shield that has 417 defense), but if not, then one item of your choice since running an account through hell is quit a bit of hassle, plus it costs a Mephies Soul Stone in most cases.

Go ahead and pick out the items you would likeI can socket the shield for 3 items, LMK and I'll pick them out.
Normally I'd say eh to that BUT your willing to socket the shield. What are the stats on the shield?I can socket the shield for 3 items, LMK and I'll pick them out.
** Actually I would take just the Bow GC and Fire GC if you'd do that.
Assumed I was socketing rypt's shield for you:Normally I'd say eh to that BUT your willing to socket the shield. What are the stats on the shield?
I think that's probably the highest defense shield you will find in a short amount of time (only one better would be a perfect 15% troll's nest.) Did you guys work out a trade for it? LMK. I think Rypt is online now, maybe message him and work things out.rypt said:I have a 198 defense troll's nest (14% enhanced defense). It's not socketed, but Larzuk would put 3 sockets into it.

Yeah, I don't really care much if it's perfect LOL. 15% isn't that much of a difference from 13% or w/e xD I'm not stingy lmao. ANYWAY! I'm waiting for him to PM me back right now, and you can PM him if you want to take the shield off of him to run it through the socketing thing. If you nab it from him and socket it (3 sockets), I'll give you the two charms for it.Assumed I was socketing rypt's shield for you:
