-The '''brooch of Shielding''' is basically an [[amulet of guardian spirit]] that also happens to provide some SH value. Like other amulets of guardian spirit, it is somewhat risky for spellcasters to use. Characters that weren't going to use their MP anyway will find it better than nothing, especially if they're already using a [[shield]] or other source of SH. Still, you might prefer some other artefact amulet with resistances or other properties.
+The '''brooch of Shielding''' is an [[amulet of guardian spirit]] that also provides a large SH boost. Like other amulets of guardian spirit, it is a little risky for spellcasters to use as it can cause you to run out of MP earlier than you'd expect. Characters that don't rely on [[MP]] will definitely find it better than standard amulets; the SH boost is greater than an [[amulet of reflection]] with guardian spirit on top. An excellent [[randart]] may be superior or provide a necessary resistance, but this unrand is still very desirable.
 The brooch of Shielding is the shield equivalent of the [[ring of the Tortoise|rings of the Tortoise]] and [[ring of the Hare|Hare]].
