Greatshield of Glory is a Greatshield in Dark Souls 2. Greatshields can be used not only to block an enemy but allows player to do shield bash. (Great shields replaced parry ability with heavy shield bash)
Acquired From:
- Dropped from Drakekeepers (with a warpick) in Dragon Shrine (rare drop).
Hints and Tips:
- Drop rate is fairly low, recommended using the Covetous Gold Serpent Ring and Jester Hat/Prisoner Set in tandem.
- This shield has very good elemental defenses, especially against fire. If infused with Fire it will have 97.5% resistance to fire damage. The Gyrm Greatshield has 100% resistance to both fire and physical damage by default, however, making it a better option if one seeks only to hinder the effects of those two elements specifically.
Notes:
- Resembles the shield used by the Tower Knight from Demon's Souls.

It really is weird they drop the shield that the Syan Knights wield rather than the Drakekeeper Greatshield.
And why don't the Syan Knights drop this greatshield?

Luet knew what he was doing selling his sword for these instead of farming
- Anonymous
why do these guys have Syan's shield and why do Syan knights haven't? a mystery
- Anonymous
Yes! After what seemed like an eternity of farming that Drakekeeper, he finally drop it! Visions of happiness!!!
But I ended coming back to dual-wielding my 2 Gyrm Great Axes.....
Pain-Peko.

Someone have one of these to give or trade? I'm farming for this***** for days and not a single one droped. I have some Heide parts to trade If anyone interests. I play on PS3 - Neos_BK

Is there any way to determine what the actual % chance for this drop is? Three ascetics later ( & wearing the recommended items) I have yet to see one...

Tower shield weighs 2 less and has 2 more stability than maxed out glory at +7 but less elemental defenses.
HA-HAHAHA-HA! The tower knight shall return!
