The Best Shields for the Drake?

If you are stuck in a mission and do not know how to continue, this is the place to ask for help. Missing that elusive Level 10 Shield? Don''t know where to find the lost Ohtori ship? This is the only place where spoilers are allowed!

Adv. Sentinel, LVL 6, Graviton, sold at Kyoto, perhaps Atka and Naha too.

Depends on who you're fighting.
If you look at the stats of the shield, you see what the shield protects the best.

True, for SP. Since he has a clan I assume he means MP, where you would lose unmounted stuff,
so not carry shields to swap. In MP you want Graviton up to class 7, since it has a lot more capacity.
In class 6: Graviton=3143, Positron/Molecular=2360

Also, in MP Nomad and CODENAME guns are common; they don't have shield type preferences.

Confirmed class 6 at Naha, and lots of places in Hokkaido too.

i mostly go to the researche station in kyushu and buy the class 6 graviton shield

but still, the graviton shield is about 120% a positron/molecular shield, but the weaps for good/normal/worse agains is 130%/100%/70%...

Thank you, i don't mean SP i find it boring after you do everything really. I'm talking about multiplayer =). This is mainly for those pesky Corsairs and the such. Thanks for the replies y'all =).

Thanks for the Kyushu location! Are you sure about that 130/100/70?
Someone told me it's a 20% difference. Graviton is weak Vs. Plasma and Particle,
but Plasma is a joke so only real worry is Outcast guns.
