The '''Granite shield''' is a piece of [[members]]-only armour. It was the first piece of [[granite armour]] to be released. It requires 50 [[Defence]] and 50 [[Strength]] to equip. It has comparable stats to the [[Obsidian shield]], minus the +5 strength bonus, so isn't used as commonly by higher levelled players. It is more commonly used than the [[rune kiteshield]] by [[members]] due to its superior ranged defence bonus. However, some players choose not to use it due to its weight and slightly lower melee defence bonuses. Some players simply purchase it because they have a [[granite body]] or other granite equipment.

Although the shield has lower melee defence bonuses than a [[Rune kiteshield]], it has a higher defence requirement. The granite shield is one of two pieces of the set with weaker melee defence stats (the other being [[granite platelegs]]) than its rune equivalent.

[[Granite equipment]] '''cannot''' be carved from [[granite]] that can be mined from the [[Western desert mining site|quarry]].

This shield is also widely used for [[Aviansie]] hunting, because of its ranged defence bonus and its cheap cost.

It can be obtained as a drop from the following monsters:
*[[Ice Troll]]
*[[Ice Troll Runt]]
*[[Troll General]]
*[[Kraka]]
*[[Pee Hat]]
*[[Rock (Troll)|Rock]]
*[[Stick]]
*[[Undead troll]]
