Faithful shield

The Faithful shield is a shield that can be bought at Castle Wars from Lanthus for 200 Castle wars tickets. It features a high prayer bonus. The shield requires 40 Defence to wield. It has the same stats as a Rune Kiteshield only with a 5 prayer bonus.

Trivia

 * This is the first shield to have particle effects, the second being the Dragonfire Shield (charged) (as of 6 March 2012). The purple glow in the centre of the shield leaves a trail for a short time when the player runs, and it spreads out during combat.
 * At 20 minutes per game, getting the 200 tickets required to purchase this item would take at least 34 hours, or a bit more than 41 hours including the 5 minute wait time between matches.
 * When it was released, the shield didn't have a defence requirement which lead to it being very popular among pures.  The defence requirement was added later.
