Buckler line question

[Tearsa]

<p>I am returning to the game after a bit of time off.  I see on the bucker line you can now use kite shields, tower shields etc. </p><p>Simple question, is there any point at all of using an actual bucker anymore?</p>

<p>Realistically no you won't need a buckler anymore. Even the buckler that used to drops in SoH is now a kite shield. Just DW when you can and bring out the kite or tower shield you have for when the mobs start hitting that little harder. Thats what i do and seem's to be pretty effective even if the healers hate having to work for a bit <img src="/smilies/8a80c6485cd926be453217d59a84a888.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></p>

<p>The STA line skill Buckler Reversal is now just Reversal.  It now requires any shield.  All other STA line skills have dropped their shield requirement.</p><p>So in short, no you don't need a buckler anymore.  <img src="/smilies/283a16da79f3aa23fe1025c96295f04f.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /> </p>
