Swadian Studded Steel Shield vs Aegis Shield
#1
I am looking for some advice on shields.  I am going for an RG so the Aegis Shield is an option

From looking at the stats for the Swadian Studded Steel Shield and the Aegis Shield, the Swadian Studded Steel Shield seems like it is a better shield in terms of how much damage it can take.  The Swadian Studded Steel Shield has a resistance of 50 while the Aegis Shield only has a resistance of 47.  This means that any hit at or above 50 the Aegis Shield will take 3 more damage per hit vs the Swadian Studded Steel Shield. Or is this not how resistance works in NI?

With the Aegis only having 150 more health then the Swadian Studded Steel Shield it only takes 50 hits before the health on both are equal and then from that point any hit will break down the Aegis faster then the Swadian Studded Steel Shield.  If my logic is wrong here please let me know the truth.   
The next question is do most shields last for 50 hits on Rag?

I know that the Aegis Shield is more popular and considered a better shield by most players so I am assuming their is a reason.  I need help understanding why that is so that I can make a good choice with deciding which shield to get.  If I am missing a 3rd shield that is better then either of these for around 2m-3m please let me know about that one as well.  Your guidance will be most appreciated, and thank you for your time spent to provide me with this information.

I hope all is well, and if not try to have a positive attitude because it helps.  Thank you and have a great day!
