Spectral spirit shield detail
The Spectral spirit shield was released on 15 September 2008 along with Summer's End. It requires 75 Defence, 70 Prayer and 65 Magic to wield. The shield is made by attaching a Spectral sigil to a Blessed spirit shield. To do this, players need 90 Prayer and 85 Smithing. In addition, you must have completed Summer's End to make or wear the spectral spirit shield. Alternatively, Brother Bordiss can be asked to attach it for 1,500,000 coins after completing Perils of Ice Mountain. To enter and kill the Corporeal Beast for any sigil drops, Summer's End must be completed.

Unlike the other spirit shields, namely the arcane spirit shield, divine spirit shield, and elysian spirit shield, the spectral spirit shield does not currently offer any hidden damage reduction ability.

Compared to othersEdit

The spectral spirit shield has the same defensive bonuses as the other spirit shields, although it lacks the vital damage-absorbing capabilities of the other three. It has the second-highest Armour and Life rating of any non-Dungeoneering shield, after the Dungeoneering reward shields. It also has the highest Prayer bonus of any defensive shields of such capability. All of these attributes are shared by the other spirit shields, so it is less useful than any of them.

HistoryEdit

Corporeal Beast's Stomp AttackEdit

Both the Grand Exchange and "street" prices of the Spectral Spirit Shield have been known to fluctuate. At the time of its release, the price of the Spectral Spirit Shield stabilised in the 40-50 million coins range and was known to be the least expensive of the 'enhanced' spirit shields. Due to the Corporeal Beast's stomp attack update on 15 October 2008, its price steadily rose to more than 150 million coins, after which it started to drop again. Since then the price has fallen down to 6,922,231 coins.

TriviaEdit

  • On 1 February 2010, the spirit shields appearances were changed to match their inventory pictures, which were updated on 11 January. The Spectral spirit shield's colour was changed into a vibrant indigo from a pale bluish purple. Previously the Elysian spirit shield and Spectral spirit shield were close to same shade of blue.
