Arcane spirit shield

The arcane spirit shield was released on 16 October 2014. It requires 75 Defence, 70 Prayer and 65 Magic to wield. Creating the shield requires 90 Prayer and 85 Smithing and grants 1,800 Smithing experience. Alternatively, Abbot Langley will combine the two for players who do not have the requirements to do it themselves, for a cost of 1,500,000 coins.

Compared to others
The shield has the same defensive bonuses as the blessed spirit shield, though it also gives a +20 Magic attack bonus. This makes it the off-hand item with the best Magic attack bonus in the game, outclassing the mages' book (+15). Like the other spirit shields, it also gives a small Prayer bonus and has no offensive penalties, making it suitable for all styles of combat. Its substantial Magic attack bonus, however, makes it most suited for mages.
