I'm currently playing a 1-handed/shield/archer type character, and WoW, do I love the Spellbreaker shield! This is the first time I have tried this shield, and it is awesome!

I no longer fear spell-casters, and with the fast movement perk, enemy mages don't have a chance anymore! The ward that this shield casts works very well and can be reapplied each time your shield is knocked down.

So, if you have not tried this shield, go do Peryite's quest ASAP, you'll love it!

Peryite?

yeah its a great shield, ive used it a few times as a sword and board user. however it kinda looks like a ancient satellite dish, maybe the dwemer were watching sky sports all those years ago?

But it's soon ugly! I'm using the Lord stone and a couple of those permanent effects for my magic resistance plus the shield of Solitude. I am actually about to embark on Peryite's quest out of coincidence, but man, that is one trailer park antennae looking shield. :-/

The shield works great for battlemages too

Weird double-post.

Edit: A change of verbiage.

Meridia and Periyte are a melee fighter's best friends, really.

Of course, real men serve Mephala and go two-handed.

I use a Frost shield as Ice is the NPC spell I feel is most cheese

Two-handed that is based on One-handed damage. Ebony blade made me sad, not only from that but you had to be Pure evil to make it good

That is the opposite of my character

Edit : I didn't know Daedric princes had a specific Race as appeared in Skyrim.
