Going to have a shield that I can craft, and as a tank, I want either the biggest shield out there or the coolest one there is, or both. So I'm asking all of you, and not this is purely based on appearance, not stats.

    I really like the Trinimac shield look (huge size and cool tree), but the motif is annoyingly rare so every so often I try to find a crafter who knows it and will craft it in the set I need. If I have any of the mats/style mats I provide them (besides payment).

    Kind of depends on the "look" and personality/storyline that you see for your character.

    Hisa Ni Caemaire - Altmer Sorceress, member of the Order Draconis and Adept of the House of Dibella.
    Broken Branch Toothmaul - goblin (for my goblin characters, I use either orsimer or bosmer templates) Templar, member of the Order Draconis and persistently unskilled pickpocket
    Mol gro Durga - Orsimer Socerer/Battlemage who died the first time when the Nibenay Valley chapterhouse of the Order Draconis was destroyed, then went back to Cold Harbor to rescue his second/partner who was still captive. He overestimated his resistance to the hopelessness of Oblivion, about to give up, and looked up to see the golden glow of atherius surrounding a beautiful young woman who extended her hand to him and said "I can help you". He carried Fianna Kingsley out of Cold Harbor on his shoulder. He carried Alvard Stower under one arm. He also irritated the Prophet who had intended the portal for only Mol and Lyris.

    True.

    I really like the mercenary shield. It isn't too flashy or anything and actually looks like it could get the job done.

    Glass is kind of chunky. And it gets bonus points for being the same pattern as the block effect, which makes it feel projected and larger.

    There you go, have at it. No idea off the top of my head, but that's why ESOFashion exists.

    Though myself I don't understand the desire behind giant shields. I know they're part of the Dictionary illustration of a Knight, but Shields like the Khajiiti one are neat. They don't dwarf you and it's shaped like a Crescent! Perfect for easy Stabbing while holding it up.

    Bone shield, It's underestimated. Costs stamina instead of magicka .

    Hmm but otherwise I think skinchanger is best thing to ever happen to fashion.

    I like Malacath when I feel like a big shield, it has that cool "stand your ground" look about it and isn't overly fancy. Also Barbaric one is gorgeous imo, it looks silly on absolutely all my characters but I love it regardless :D
