Isenhart's Parry is a unique Gothic Shield in Diablo 2 Resurrected named after the legendary blacksmith, Isenhart. It is a relatively low-level item, requiring a character level of 8 to wield, and it can drop randomly from monsters or be purchased from vendors.
The shield has several unique stats that make it a useful defensive item for early-game characters. These include:
+20% Increased Chance to Block: This bonus increases the chance that a character will successfully block an incoming attack, reducing the amount of damage taken.
+30% Faster Block Rate: This bonus increases the speed at which a character can block incoming attacks, allowing them to block more frequently.
+10 to Strength: This bonus increases a character's damage output, and the chance to hit, and allows them to equip higher-level gear.
+10 to Energy: This bonus increases a character's mana pool, allowing them to use more spells and abilities in combat.
Overall, D2R Isenhart's Parry is a good early-game shield for characters who prioritize defense and blocking, such as Paladins or Barbarians. However, it is not a top-tier item and will eventually be outclassed by higher-level shields with better defensive stats.
Isenhart's Parry can be used effectively in a few ways in Diablo 2 Resurrected. Here are some tips on how to use this shield:
Focus on blocking: Isenhart's Parry has a high chance to block, and a fast block rate bonus, making it an excellent shield for characters who rely on blocking to avoid damage. To make the most of this shield, be sure to invest in skills and attributes that increase your blocking ability.
Combine with other defensive items: While Isenhart's Parry provides good defense, it is not enough to rely on solely in tougher fights. Consider combining it with other defensive items, such as armor with high defense, or a second weapon for dual-wielding.
Pair with a complementary weapon: Isenhart's Parry is a shield, meaning you will need a one-handed weapon to use it. Pairing it with a complementary weapon that provides a balance of offensive and defensive capabilities can help maximize its potential.
Upgrade if possible: Isenhart's Parry is a low-level item, so it will eventually be outclassed by higher-level shields. However, if you find yourself relying on this shield and want to continue using it, consider upgrading it at the Horadric Cube using the appropriate formula. This will increase its base stats and may provide additional bonuses.
