Medusa's Gaze

Description

This shield, despite looking like utterly useless thing, is still efficient - but only being used by Aldur-wearing druids (

Fire Claws+armag build).

Even coloration of it complements Aldur set properly. Main trick here is

Lower Resist proc trigger for increasing overall fire dps. (This is why no increased blocking on it - it's effectively an off-hand weapon, not protection).

Low block chance is actually a boon, not a problem for such druid - he wants to get hit instead of parrying. Besides, its huge strength requirement isn't a big concern because of massive strength bonus Aldur set provides.

Aside from that,

Medusa's Gaze practical value is minimal.

Another useful tip about this shield -

Lower Resist by itself here still can't help against immunes - but combined with Infinity of your merc, picture changes

Minotaur packs, Lister pack, and many other Infi-resistant immunes start to burn like paper.

Also its slow 20% effect works even better if you're wearing

Nosferatu's Coil - even more strength, life leech, and total slow of 30% helps significantly.
