whats so good about light relief?

[excecutor]

i got one yesterday from yellowboze in vhard temple. i dont see why its so good. its a 10 star sheild. it adds minimal boosts to def and ev but it only adds as much dark resistance as delsabers sheild does. and delsabers sheild is a lot better. plus u can use a light releif and only reaching lvl 17. what is up with this?

Well, the Delsaber's Shield isn't equipable by FO's but the Light Relief is, so it's useful for FO's that need to boost their EDK. Other than that, I don't know what would be good about it.

And then you take a look at shifta merge....

and realize a shifta merge is only 5 EDK off from a light relief.

I think a resta merge is 10 EDK off, from information on this site.

Wow, that's strange. I swear I saw it could've been combined with something to make a better item. But I guess Sacred Guard threw me off. Meh, I gotta go find me an Invisible Guard for my Safety Heart!
