The '''Falador shield 3''', also called the Tower shield, is a reward for completing the easy, medium and hard [[Falador_Tasks#Hard_tasks|Falador Tasks]]. Players may obtain the shield from the [[squire]] in the [[White Knights' Castle]]. If you have lost the shield, speaking to the squire will allow you to obtain a new one. It is one of the items that are always kept on (normal) death, although it can be lost in the Wilderness if it is not among the '[[Items kept on death]]'

Although it provides poor defensive statistics (similar to an [[Adamant kiteshield]]), the shield previously had the highest [[Prayer#Prayer bonus|prayer bonus]] for any item in the shield slot, at +7 and has identical stats to the [[Falador shield 4]]. On [[7 November]] [[2011]] it was beaten out by the [[Illuminated god books]] with a bonus of +8

This shield requires a [[Defence]] level of 30 to be able to obtain, which makes it a somewhat counterpart to the adamant kiteshield except with a prayer bonus, just as Proselyte armour is.

==Benefits==
[[File:Falador shield prayer restore.gif|frame|right|A player using the shield to restore prayer points.]]
===From Falador shields 1 and 2===
;When worn
*Ability to use an emote (operate via [[Worn Equipment]] tab)
*Increases [[farming]] experience when using the patches north of [[Port Sarim]] by 10%

===Falador shield 3 only===
;Operate
*Restore up to 100% of your max prayer points once per day (resets at [[time|00:00 UTC]])

;At all times
*A [[White lily seed]] will be obtained in addition to each [[Bird's nest]] obtained from [[Wyson the gardener]] in Falador Park when trading [[Mole claw]]s and [[Mole skin|skins]]

'''Notes:''' The prayer restore feature is very hard to use during combat, as a confirmation chatbox is opened, and will be closed if you are hit. Therefore, it is unwise to rely on the shield to restore your prayer if it is essential to survival - however it is possible, with good timing, to restore prayer in single combat, although it is significantly harder to do so in multicombat. The power of the shield is usable even in the other-dimensional, [[Prayer]]-draining, [[Abyss]]al plane though it may be difficult to use it simply for the amount of high-level aggressive monsters attacking the player.

==Trivia==
*To some it resembles a shield of a ''Guard of the White Tree ''from J.R.R. Tolkien's Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King.
*If you use the emote and quickly do a regular emote, you will do the normal emote while the icon still floats there.
*Despite having the symbol of [[Saradomin]] on them, none of the Falador Shields offer protection from Saradomin's forces in the [[God Wars Dungeon]].
