What sets this shield apart is its emphasis on guard capacity rather than pure damage negation. At +10 upgrade level, the Verdigris Greatshield boasts a 90 Guard Boost, the highest of any shield in Elden Ring . Additionally, it comes with a unique skill called Moore's Charge, similar to Shield Crash but with one key difference: while it doesn't deal damage directly, it creates an AoE splash at the end of the charge that can knock down multiple enemies. The tradeoff for its high stats against physical, Fire, and Magic damage is its considerable weight of 28.0 (second only to the Fingerprint Stone Shield) and a staggering Strength requirement of 49, the highest in the game.

Though the Golden Greatshield isn't quite as light as the Eclipse Crest Greatshield, its weight of 17.0 is still on the lower side when compared to the rest of its class. While the Golden Greatshield isn't the most sturdy option at first, upon being upgraded, it becomes one tough piece of gear, with a Guard Boost stat of 78. It doesn't have any special gimmicks, and it isn't quite as tough as the rest of the shields above it in this tier, but the Golden Greatshield is a great option for most heavier builds, especially when it can be easily farmed in both the Altus Plateau and Leynde<br><br> <br>Getting it is also simple.

Inverted Hawk Towershield : There's nothing wrong with the Inverted Hawk Towershield, being another good shield across the board, and taking minimal effort to farm, but there's also nothing too special about it, landing it on the B-tier of this list by default. Highlights of this Greatshild are its good Magic and Holy resistances. However, players should be prepared for an exceptionally low drop rate.

However, Yura's questline can be quite long compared to a lot of other NPC questlines and will require you to unlock/reach the Altus Plateau, which is unofficially considered a mid-game area in Elden Ring . Once you encounter Yura at the Second Church of Marika in the Altus Plateau and talk to him, the Nagakiba is yours. To complete this questline in full, you'll need to meet with and help Yura out a number of times, so let's break down exactly what's involved in this questline below:

Speaking of more trolls, Stormhill is a lovely area full of those walking behemoths. One area, specifically south of Warmaster's Shack, has five of these trolls standing near a cliff . They're also evenly spaced out so players don't need to fight multiple trolls all at the same time — though doing that is faster but risk

The second method for obtaining the Nagakiba involves completing Yura's questline to a certain degree or at least interacting with it in some capacity and then heading to the Mountaintops of the Giants.


Cuckoo Greatshield : The Cuckoo Greatshield is an excellent option for those looking to absorb some Magic damage , but unfortunately, it's outshone by the Eclipse Crest Greatshield in just about every way. Still, this shield remains a great one for Magic and Holy defense if the player hasn't found the Eclipse Crest yet.
