whats the best shield

[Huscarlton Banks]

Commando + Militia + Crossbowman is, without question, the best shielder for any situation, since the commando class itself gives two shield skill points by itself, and both t2 xbow and t2 skirmisher give 0 shield stat bonuses.

Plus they can use shields with these stats:

Weight 3
Spd rtng 87
Body armor 35
Hit points 1000
Shield width 36
Shield height 70
