The Scarlet shield is a good solid and reliable 3 star shield it's greatest fault is that it doesn't have a path to 5*.

It's resistance values are identical to the Twisted Targe, another status resist free shield. The targe however has a path to 5* while the Scarlet doesn't.

I would propose to create the rest of the line.

4*
Carmine Cover
This Shield physically resembles the Great Defender with red color and light tan border.
Damage resist values are equal to the DTS with Elemental instead of Pierce.
Instead of Sword damage Medium this shield would provide a health boost of +3.

5*
Crimson Castle
This shield physically resembles the Guardian shield with a "Heart Attack" symbol displayed like the 5* plate shield symbols.
Damage resist values are equal to the BTS with Elemental instead of Pierce.
Instead of Sword damage Medium this shield would provide a health boost of +4.

i agree!

I agree with your post holy that having a 5 star version would really complete this shield because it has a great back story for it, the shield feels usable and would go well with the deluxe vita suit or a 5 star vita suit creation. I hope this can be implemented and lets cross our fingers for its 4 and 5 star counterpart to not be a reskin if it is created.

Would it be too much to instead make the increase in Health go up by +2 instead of +1 Intervals?

@ Rhons

The amount of HP OOO decides to give it per level is up to them. Even a +2 on just the 5* would make it appealing especially to those who craft shields for UVs. This shield could have a massive market.

If the Scarlet Shield had a 5* variant that gave any amount of extra health, it would probably become my primary shield. It could also give players looking for more protective sets a better option than just pure defense (you know, it doesn't do much currently). I feel like going from a Defender to a Plate Shield would seem a bit odd, but I like this other than that. Perhaps it would be better if it went to the crescent shape similar to the Bitter End or the Blackened Crest. The Heart Attack could be fit into the center and glow, still similar to the plate shields.

When I talk about guardian shield I'm not talking about the shield lines that Izola offers. I'm talking about this kind of shield: http://media.spiralknights.com/wiki-images/3/34/Monster-Arkus.png

Ah, I see.

Sorry, I didn't think about those. Yea, that kind of shield would look pretty good. Crafting to those would make some more sense than Izola style shields as well, so I'm all for that version.
