What is the best soulshield for a HM 10 assassin?

[Juh]

Hey guys... I'm HM 10 at the moment, 648 ap and I wanted to know: Which soulshield should I use? I have 55.60% critical rate (4806) and I don't think this is alot compared to others. I always see people with the same AP and gear with much more critical so, could you guys give me some tips? Thanks! :)

For your purposes, the answer probably is Asura 5x and 3x good ones from some other set. Also double check if you have properly maxed your shield upgrade fusion bonus. A good resource for shields is:

From best to worst

 

1,2,4,6,8 asura - 3,5,7 oblivion

 

1,3,5,6.7 asura - 2,4,8 challenger

 

1,2,4,6,8 asura - 3,5,7 be ido

The crit should be good enough. If more crit is desired tho i can recommend Asura+5,7,8 Oblivion.  Otherwise you can try my older combination of 1,2,4 Asura, 3,5,6, Be Ido and 7,8 Oblivion.

 

It will give you about 5100 crit in total along with your equipment. I infused all of the SS with blue artisanal silverfrost critical primer. 

 

One note is that farming and maxing oblivion might be bit hard but. i think it worth the effort.  One other thing is that there is a possibility you can lose accuracy depending on what SS you got. To compensate, you may have to infuse other SS piece of yours with artisanal accuracy soul shield primer.

On another note,the new patch will bring  a soulshield to replace Asura as the staple PvE 5-set. So no need to invest too deeply into the combinations mentioned above.
