if youre around 72 you can get away with using that lvl 68 shield for a level or two until you get that 72+5's BR up.

First off eliminate the 72 one, 12 BR is trash.

If your a Blader, I would use the 64+7 until you got a 72+5 with 17+ BR.

If your a s/s, go with the 68+5 until a 72+5 with 17+ BR.

i agree on oro upon eliminating the 72 sheil. br is terrible

i would use the 68+5 because it has nice amount of extra defense and imo the minumum amount of br for a good sheild

Just alchemy the 72 shield until you get a good br (I like 16+, 17+ is hard to get).

I guess it depends on your build.

Me personally, I would prefer the 64 +7 with 18 BR. I'm a pure STR and don't exactly need more defense.. but blocking hits more is always fun during PVP.

The 72 is junk unless you get that BR up.
