Unique Shields found in Diablo and Hellfire. There were no unique shields added in Hellfire. All of the following are found in both games.

Diablo Unique Shields[edit]

The unique shields are almost all quite worthless. It's enough to make you wonder if the D1 team intended shields not to have much in the way of magical modifiers during the development process, and then upgraded their potential magical properties late in the game design process. Too late to go back in and fix up the uniques.

+Fast Block<br/>
-The Stormshield is the only quality unique shield in the game, and it's a popular item for any class that uses a shield. The stats aren't that impressive, but it's got fairly high AC, the fast block and +strength are nice, and the way the game limits prefixes and suffixes on shields means that there are few good magical shields to compete with it.
+Durability: Indestructible<br/>
+Requirements: 80/60 strength<br/>
-This item is somewhat buggy, since the same stats exist for the Gothic and Tower shield. This makes the shield drop about twice as often as it would otherwise, and for that reason it's one of the most common high level uniques. Both types use the same gothic shield graphic.

-* Availability: SP and MP. Drops for both Gothic and Tower, so twice as common as expected.
