Default Best shield skin for my Warrior?

Hi everyone. I am attempting to get my Warrior setup with the most complimentry skins available. So far he is wearing Granite Citadel Ascended Plaitmail dyed white. He wields a Legendary Sword which compliments the armor very well. But the shield skin throws things off a little bit. Right now he has a Gloom Shield dyed white which match's the armor and sword, but it sticks out like a sore thumb. I was wondering if anyone knew of a shield that would better compliment my warrior. I can post images for better visualization. I want to be able to stick with the theme of my setup of all white, so the shield has to as dyable as the gloom shield. Charecters name is Xx H O L Y Xx and for RP he's a holy white knight fighting the demonic forces.

You'll have to decide that one for yourself. Here's a link to a page with links to all the shields available in GW. http://gw.gamewikis.org/wiki/Shield Good luck and happy shopping!

People RP in GW?

Equine Aegis would probably look best.

Try a darkwing defender dyed white or silver - would look really good with that armor IMO.

Aegis/shield of the wing or a Summit Warlord Shield maybe?

< Fav combo that is still used to this day: FDS and SotW (which can be acquired easily now with GW:EN.)

However, the SotW might not go to well with the Legendary Sword because of the shield's size. I'd go with a Tall Shield.

I say Equine Aegis or Exalted. Exalted is still my personal favorite of all the skins, but Equine looks pretty nice too and seems to fit the bill for what you seek.

In the end its really going to be simply what you like. Try the wiki link.

Well you can help us by telling us if you use strength or tactics?

I would say that you should plated shield? Or you can go irredescent or diamond aegis.

But really i think gloom is the best skin

I had a similar problem when I got my warrior Vabbian armor. I used to roll with a nice Gloom Shield dyed white...then with the new armor....just looked wrong.

From the sounds it seems you're going for a "knightly" or "paladin" look. Try Shield of the Lion-you can get one as a collector item in Nightfall for both strength and tatics and dyes really nicely white. In addition it might have that look that you're going for.

For a classic look i agree shield of lion looks good.or the gothic defender although not as much of it actually dyes, it is a classic warrior skin, for something different diamond aegis is nice, i would even go skull shield.

The Reinforced Defender is pretty nice looking and sliver however it may be a Paragon only shield as I do not see it listed in the Wiki list.
