~Mark! 1 Report post Posted June 20, 2013 Orb better for me - Adds mana and stm Use Ice Meteor once u unlock it, untill then: - Start with Divine Lightning - Proceed with Chain Lightning - Proceed with Ice Meteor Stats: http://thronum.com/forum/index.php?topic=70439.0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
muzzy 0 Report post Posted June 20, 2013 orbs are better because the higher level you go up, the more priestess benefit from the specials such as increase block rating, mana and hp boost, and higher absorb that a high level shield cannot offer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dangthien 0 Report post Posted June 21, 2013 The higher you age, the better Orb becomes than Shield. Use Shield mix if you're poor and Orb +15-20 if you are rich. Orb benefit greatly after +10 aging... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
muzzy 0 Report post Posted June 21, 2013 I compared the highest shield with the highest orb. Both of the items non aged/mixed. The difference between the two are very negligible. But once you age the orb and shield, then there will be a significant stat difference between the two. The link below is the tool I used to compare aged/mixed items. http://ludwig.ae/realmpt/perfect-items/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cookie 0 Report post Posted June 25, 2013 Always go for high aged Orb. if you compare the 128 Orb and Shield you have 8% less block with the Orb, but alltogether about 1000Defense and 10 more abs with the Orb. And the extra HP, MP and Regen is nice. And you have to put extra stat Points into str just for wearing that shield, which is a waste Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
muzzy 0 Report post Posted June 25, 2013 +1. ya, two big hidden factors for going for shield method. 1. you have to waste stat points on shield which means less on spirit. 2. don't benefit from the spec of the shield Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
