215 shield
190 MO
174 evasion
167 parry

Capped out my shield in vipers, looking to move somewhere that will teach shield.

36 ref (can train it another ~4 times if necessary). Weapons are ~150-160.

Skinnable critter is preferred. Swarms would be very, very nice.

You need something that still teaches you shield and doesnt kill you quickly when training parry?

Black leucros + vipers past the deadfall or first tier nipoh oshu, in Aesry, will still teach your shield for a couple of dozen ranks and will be great for the rest.

Small peccaries and swamp trolls in Lang. (beware the trolls with shield and fendryads, these might hurt you).

Third tier snow goblins, also in Aesry, probably still teach you shield for a bit.

Go try Westanuryns, they will carry you another 100+ ranks in both defenses and weapons. They swarm fantastic out in Musp area, dont know about the other areas they are found in.





Alexii points at a Velakan slaver and shouts, "Another one! Don't let it get away!"

I have to say, I'm almost in the same position and planning to head from vipers to black leucros to finish up shield there, but they are really, really sparse. It's a bit frustrating. They definitely teach well though, when you can find a few.

The black leucro gen rate outside of the deadfall was really bad when i tried them. If you go into the deadfall where the leucros are mixed with vipers you'll find a lot more creatures to kill, specially in one of the 3-exit rooms.
