Interesting choices. I didn't think about using shields for damage. I am using the Rift Shield to parry, since it seems to be the best shield that only weighs 2.0. I am trying to maintain light load. I just found the Ice Crest Shield though, which has a higher magic protection than most small and medium shields. I might switch to that, but it weighs 3.0.
Yeah, when you get to the really intricate weight management, it is probably pretty tricky to fins the best balance. I have yet to experiment too much with really light builds in Elden Ring.
@@Dare_To_Game My main complaint is that all light armor is mage focused. The rogue armor is a little too heavy without a heavy spec into endurance. My character was literally shirtless until level 60. I also cannot tell the practical difference between light and medium; however, if I accidentally stray into medium without noticing then I find I take way more damage. I kept dying over and over yesterday and I couldn't work out why I suddenly suck. Then I saw I was medium load. Went back to light and problem solved.
My opinions are just based on pvp, but I still think small shields are your worst choice for damage. They get basically no status build up, very low damage, and the lowest stagger. I'd love to use the smoldering shield as my parry tool on a pyro build, but it doesn't take that apparently -_- For medium shields for damage, I like shield bash on a cold/heavy banished knight. Super satisfying to use and combo with. For great shields they're all good. Unless you want bleed. Then go with the one that goes with the thorn armor or the spiked greatshield near the great jar arsenal npc duelist thingy. Shield crash is disgusting on greatshields btw, very very strong.
Use it in your main to replace your weapon, and use the Spiked tower shield in your off hand. Max upgrade them both and level your stats accordingly for a fun, powerful dual shield build. I love it.
Actually the guilty shield also raises your vitality and immunity too. I don’t know about robustness but it does. You can tell by using something that madness while using the shield. And then without.
This is the first video iv watched of yours and all I could think is how your voice kinda reminds me of Kermit the frog then I seen your profile picture of Kermit the frog n now I know there's no other option possible your Kermit the god damn frog
Disgusting that you take advantage of players by advertising a site that sells armor, weapon, etc. It's relatively easy to acquire the different weapons and armors in the game and you are just exploiting the players that usually dont know better. You my good sir are a financial predator

I use that shield it’s really good at absorbing damage for a small shield

The spiralhorn shield is very funny looking, but amazing stats.
Yeah, definitely a silly design, but as far as small shields go, it is one of the best for sure.
Shield of the guilty looks very cool. I will have to go get it. Thanks for the guide
Hope you enjoy it! It is probably my overall favorite one to use.

Very well done, as usual. These all look so cool and unique. I would love if you could do a magma build. You could feature the magma shield in it.
I have been thinking of a magma themed build. And i have to agree that the smoldering shield would be perfect for it.

Thank you so much 😀
Just got myself Shield of the guilty. Very nice.
Thanks for the video. Really like the look of that sword. Can you please tell me which one it is?
I believe it is the Longsword. Just the sword that you start out the game with if you choose the vagabond class.
Soo good
Thank You, Very Much.
Great video :)
FYI gaol is the old English spelling for jail so it's pronounced like that
Did i say it wrong again? I thought i learned my lesson last time.
Actually the guilty shield also raises your vitality and immunity too. I don’t know about robustness but it does. You can tell by using something that madness while using the shield. And then without.
madness is focus buddy
Great
Thank You, Very Much.
Keep it up
Thank You, Very Much.

Not bad
Thank You, Very Much.
Good ♥️
Thank You, Very Much.
Damn, I thought I had everything. Time to farm cuz I'm a collector. Thank you sir!

Thank You, Very Much.
Can you do i guide/video on small shields? I've been trying to get away from the great shields and get into these. Great video!
Wonder is I can moveswap that coil shield

Good luck
Thank You, Very Much.

On repeat
Thank You, Very Much.
The small shields in this game are certainly the most unique looking.
Yeah, i would say that is a fair statement.
Woww
Thank You, Very Much.

Haters gonna hate XD

I don’t understand how you know the passives of these weapons and shields when they say literally NOTHING under passive effects
_Buying runes/weapons/etc_ is *pathetic.*
Wow aoeah has an interesting business? Yikes...😬
None of these shields give 100% against physical damage making them all useless.
You Dont use These for reducing physical damage but for their passive effects
Excellent work
Thank you! Cheers!
