So I am planning to make a Volcanic Plate Shield ("VPS") because I already have a shield for each of the other defenses.
Also, I hear great things about its use for Vana fights.
Currently, I'm crafting plate shields on a mule to get a decent UV, but have only got pierce low... yay!
The question is, should I just make the VPS without a UV, and then roll on the UV later down the road?
Or is the VPS only okay for T3 use when it has a decent uv (shadow, elemental, normal med+)?
I was thinking elemental med+ would be ideal, any thoughts for or against this?
