I’ll be making another best shields video (part 2), And I’ll be including other medium shields. I will also make a video on the best great shields which will be a separate video and also be a 2 parter as well. Thank you guys for your support😁
Heater shield - the best light shield. Lightest shield that is giving 100% protection at only 2kg Spider shield - poison resistance Buckler - best parry capabilities Crest shield - best magic protection Grass crest shield - stamina regen Black knight shield - best fire resistance and to be honest the best overall
Been trying to get to the end for the first time this past week, been rocking the crest shield for a while now, and feeling validated! Good info here. Gwyn goes down tonight ! 🙏☀
A couple other pragmatic shields: Sanctus is good for the Red Tearstone builds with the minor health regen, and the Bloodshield for Lifehunt Scythe users due to it's bleed resist. I was always partial to the Silver Knight Shield for general use, and the BKS for obvious fire problems. And if you're going light, get the Target Shield for best all-around parrying (go Thief builds!), or Small Leather for pure weight loss while wearing some better armor. Those are my picks, besides the useful Crests or straight up Havel's.
Don't sleep on the eagle shield! It's great for anyone who likes to block a lot as long as you don't mind not being able to parry. The eagle shield has great stability for its weight. You take minor chip damage when blocking stronger attacks but light attacks just glance off of you. It's very light for a greatshield and also has a low strength requirement.
@@JulianBlackSSJ Ah we have the same name but the movie star is a lot richer, better looking, and more charismatic than me. I'm probably a lot better at Dark Souls though!
You can buy the heater for 1000 souls way before you reach knight, and AR doesn't mean NOTHING if your're not doing a shield only challenge run. Surprised he made into the list. And seem how many good shields are in dark souls. Can't help get a little annoyed since I know he took the place of some other good shields Edit: And...I was totally right, he didn't include the heater which is the lightest 100% physical defense shield of the game, weighting a entire crest shield less than the knight shield 😂. Neither the dragon crest shield which considering the amount of fire/magic ratio of enemies, is actually more useful than the crest shield which is already awesome. From the list of shields that you'll never use but will take advantage of their abilities, Sanctus is amazing as well, not included.... And for the love of god HOW? HOW you mannaged to miss the bloodshield which increases your curse, bleed and poison resistance by 20%? And different from the spider shield that only blocks the poison, this one actually increases YOUR resistance. Do you even know how much of a difference 20% curse can make in a Seath fight, or a great hollow trip?
What about the greatshield of artorias? I know it requires alot of strength, but it still has S tier blocking capabilities, physical damage cannot go through It, AT ALL, and magic is greatly reduced to mere chip damage at best.

The knight shield has the highest AR damage of any shield you cant strike with !
yo this game is timeless
What about the greatshield of artorias?
I know it requires alot of strength, but it still has S tier blocking capabilities, physical damage cannot go through It, AT ALL, and magic is greatly reduced to mere chip damage at best.
Thanks for your wisdom :3
