Pavise vs Rg

[DR.]

Well i say this as i have a set for commando but almost 0 for Xbow but want one

Xbow

Spoiler

Fell Edge
Studded Gauntlets
(Aegis Shield)-can get in a trade i think
(Penetrator) -Ruff may let me use it (maybe)
The rest i can buy low end crafted stuff in the mean time

Infantry

Fell Edge
Stone Maul
Swadian Resilience
Swadian Helm
Swadian Halfplate
Studded Gauntlets
Swadian Boots

So most of you would say go Rg (2.250m well sent for 3 heroes that almost do the same thing 8))

you can see a bit of a difference shielding as Pavise right next to RG, but I wouldn't call it bad. Legions and Zweis with 8 shield skill shield on Rag.
Also, yes, Pavise has 7 power strike.

Thanks but that 7 power strike wow buff the Aventurier to 8 then making it almost as good as Leg

Really the trade off is you can either bring xbow/bolts and a shield losing your 1h.
Or 2 shields & a 1h which would pretty much diminish the point of having shooting skill.
or sacrifice your support, but thats selfish

Most of the time it would be xbow bolts 1h then in the later waves 2 x Shield 1h if the team needs it
