Question on exile, help plz?

[zagggon]

Does the shield that im going to use for exile have to be only for a pally before i even make the runeword? I know it is only for pally once it's made but does it have to be only for pally shield before its made? :confused:

Also,
Don’t waste the runes unless the shield is ethereal, elite, and has at least 30+% to all resist.

Some people go for 45%+ Enhanced Damage also.

Since it is a property of the shield itself, it may increase the BASE smite damage, giving it a much better damage output. I'll see if I can check on that later.

Those are hard to come by, let alone regular vortex sheilds. Good luck finding/trading for one, Pit is best place to find it if you are going that way.

Yea, and that. Thanks :)

but wait if it had +res or dmg then it would be magic and could not be made into a runeword correct?

[Vollstrecker]

No. Those are naturally-spawning attributes on Pally Shields, like Druid Pelts can spawn with + to certain skills.
