Meteor shield, why should I use ir?

Whats up about the Meteor shield? 1% drop chance and looks like useful only for rally low level. Can someone explain why every peltasta uses a Meteor?
Also, its a little expensive…

it’s a really fabulous level 1 shield, amazing for Rank 1. it’s a decent shield for Rank 2. by the time you hit Rank 3, it’s getting pretty old.

people are just obsessed with having "perfect gear at every level, no matter how much i have to spend"
i have one sitting around myself. it’s nice, but honestly, you won’t really notice it.

Taunt > Multiple mobs hit you > better chances of triggering heal

But this only works for low levels where mobs tickle you.

For something that’s less than 5k (Telsiai) it’s pretty cheap to buy for an alt, but if you are starting out just skip it, nothing significant really.

what should be a “rank 1, 2 or 3”?
I mean, should I keep´it until wich level?

Doesn’t matter, as long as multiple enemies tickles you keep using it

depend, i swap back to it if i m fighting magic mob, since they can be dodge, and physical defense have no use
if i m fighting physical mob, i swap to higher defense shield

It’s RNG, but I used it until I hit 75 because again, it matters to the point where things tickle you. And because most basic shields don’t really change block rate, you can get away with it.

It’s a neat little Rank 1 Shield, but somewhere between 3 to 4 you’ll most likely just get a strong white shield to replace it.

basically, when i said “rank” i mean your class ranks.
generally, you tend to rank up around the same levels that equipment upgrades and the exp-breaks happen.

ranks at -approximately- 15, 42, 78, 12x, 17x… etc.
gear steps up at 15, 40, 75, 120, 170… etc.
exp breaks at 17, 47, 87, 137… etc (if tosbase has the up-to-date exp tables, that is…)
