Spartan Shields Tips

  • Compare Max Protection. Hover over shields to read their Max Protection value and pick the strongest one you can afford to carry.
  • Carry a silver shield for the undead. On mob-heavy nights or in dungeons, a Silver Gilded Shield damages zombies and skeletons that hit your guard.
  • Save the Bulky Obsidian Shield for standing your ground. Its huge protection is worth the slowdown when you plan to hold a position rather than chase.
  • Enchant for a counter-attacking build. Spikes plus Payback and Firebrand turns blocking into a way to hurt attackers, not just survive them.
  • Use Tower Shields for a personal crest. Apply a banner to a Wooden or metal Tower Shield to carry your own emblem or team colours.
  • Upgrade from an undamaged shield. Combine a full-durability shield with a better material so the upgraded shield keeps maximum durability.
  • Match modded metals. If you play with tech or magic mods, craft shields from their metals so your defence keeps pace with your modded gear.
