# Ancient Shield

Made with ancient techniques that no longer survive. Go long enough without taking a hit and it knits itself back together, a level of performance the modern era supposedly cannot match.

## Notes we already publish

- (use) If you have already built the Advanced Shield ([[item:Shield_SF]]) you are most of the way here. The two recipes share 50 Ancient Civilization Parts ([[item:PalCrystal_Ex]]) and 30 Ancient Civilization Cores ([[item:AncientParts2]]); this one asks for 50 more Paldium Fragment and swaps the Stainless Steel and Thermal Cores for 30 Soralite Ingot ([[item:SkyislandIngot]]) and 5 AI Core ([[item:AIcore]]). Those last two are the only genuinely new shopping list — nothing else in the recipe is something a level-71 base is not already producing.
- (use) The materials are not the wall, the bench time is. This build is 10,000,000 work — five times the Advanced Shield's 2,000,000 and roughly 67 times the Hyper Shield ([[item:Shield_04]]). No shield can be made from the handcraft menu, so it occupies a production line from start to finish. Queue it with your highest-tier Handiwork Pals on the line and treat it as an overnight job rather than something you start when your current shield breaks.
- (strategy) Measured against what it replaces, the jump is real but not enormous: 2,200 shield against the Advanced Shield's 1,800 (+22%) and 22,000 durability against 21,000. Durability barely moves, so what you are buying is the extra 400 points of absorb per engagement — worth most against raid and tower bosses that burst straight through a shield in one combo. If the Advanced Shield is still carrying you through the content you are clearing, spend the Soralite Ingots and AI Cores elsewhere and come back to this when the shield is what is failing you.
