Hey,
I am playing a little Diablo 2 (free time!) and have three shields between which I can't decide. Here they are:
Grim Shell
Kite Shield
Defense: 23
Chance to Block: 43%
Durability: 30/30
10% Faster Hit Recovery
15% Faster Block Rate
10% Increased Chance of Blocking
+24% Enhanced Defense
Fire Resist +4%
Cold Resist +4%
Lightning Resist +12%
Poison Resist 4%
Poison Length Reduced by 25%
Strong Bone Shield of Deflecting
Defense: 43
Chance to Block: 65%
Durability: 40/40
30% Faster Block Rate
20% Increased Chance to Block
+40% Enhanced Defense
Tangerine Tower Shield of Deflecting
Defense: 23
Chance to Block: 69%
Durability: 60/60
30% Faster Block Rate
20% Increased Chance of Blocking
Lightning Resist +20%
My character is a level 22 barbarian in early Act III.
So, which one should I use?

High and fast block rate is good..especially in Act III Normal where resistances aren't all that important. And with high and fast block rate, you can stop those pesky guys that shoot darts (don't remember the names...haven't played D2 in almost 2 years.)
