|summary=The most radical of shields.}}
''The Radical Crest is the invention of Vince 'El Dude' Minkowski, a legendary sea explorer and veteran combat cleric. This crest-shaped elongated shield breaks the waves just as smoothly as it does any hard offensive, making it easily the most radical of shields ever.''
The Radical Crest functions as a +3 [[Dilatantoplastic (3.5e Equipment)|dilatantoplastic]] heavy shield [[Greatshield (3.5e Equipment)|greatshield]] and grants a total [[SRD:Shield Bonus|shield bonus]] to AC of +5 6 and [[SRD:Damage Reduction|damage reduction]] 46/piercing.
The Radical Crest has the magical property to let liquids easily glide off of its surface, granting [[SRD:Cover|cover]] against all attacks and effects involving any sort of liquid substance provided the wielder has the appropriate [[SRD:Shield Proficiency|Shield Proficiency]]. The wielder enjoys the [[SRD:Shield Bonus|shield bonus]] as a bonus to [[SRD:Reflex|Reflex]] saves against area effects involving water or any sort of harmful liquid, gaining effective [[SRD:Evasion|evasion]] against such effects. If the wielder already has evasion, it becomes improved evasion against these types of effects instead.
