The lack of Fire and Poison resistances can be partially remedied by having Larzuk add a socket and inserting a Perfect Diamond or Um Rune.

Runes can also be used in some Horadric Cubes recipes. Stormshield does not provide defense against Fire or Poison, so when fighting enemies of those kind, resistances should be put into mind. Mal can be applied to Socketed Items, by doing so it grants said item different properties depending on if the Socketed Item is a Weapon or a piece of Armor. Stormshield also has the ability to reduce enemy damage by 35%, the highest such bonus from any single item in the game. Stormshield offers a particularly high boost to Cold Resist, and a smaller boost to Lightning Resist. In addition, unlike Gerke's Sanctuary, Stormshield is a light shield and does not impede movement.Īs its name implies, Stormshield primarily provides resistance against the elements of a storm: Cold and Lightning. This is especially useful in the case of Paladins, who benefit from a higher base chance to block, as well as the Holy Shield skill. Stormshield is a unique Monarch, a type of shield from Diablo II: Lord of Destruction.Īlthough it does not offer as high of a blocking chance as fellow unique shield, Gerke's Sanctuary, Stormshield still has a very high chance of block and a fast rate of blocking which is very useful in its own right.
