A +5 kite shield with rElec is already a great find for many characters; the '''Storm Queen's shield'''<ref>{{source ref|0.30.1|art-data.txt|1789}}</ref> is stronger. It gives extra retaliation damage that few monsters resist. A good item for any shield-using character, though some characters may prefer a highly enchanted [[tower shield]] instead.

Desirability

The Storm Queen's shield[1], as just a +5 kite shield of rElec, would already be a great find for many characters. The extra retaliation damage - which few monsters resist - only makes it better. A good item for any shield-using character, though some may prefer a highly enchanted tower shield instead.
