Scorpion or Cinderlands Soul Shield?

[Jowjow]

which one is better? they're for the same level, but which one is better? 

[ShockFactor]

Look at the stats on the shield, decide which your class needs the most.  You can also use 5/8 and 3/8 to mix the stats if you think that would better suit you.

[Insanyti]

In this game the Soul Shield is the equivalent of Gear/Armor in other MMO games. They are what enhances your choice stats such as 100% hit/accuracy, crit, crit damage, etc.

ShockFactor is absolutely correct too - You don't have to equip an entire 8 piece set if you have other pieces that have better stats to offer. Just weigh what you'll be losing against what you'll be gaining. See if it's worth it to you.
