In my next playthrough I will use Shale as a tank but what kind of crystals are best used for her?

Use whatever the encounter calls for. Although, fire is far and away the most common element in the game, so the Large fire crystals are the best all around ones.

I'd go for Spirit overall, but keep a pair of small Fire and Ice crystals handy for the enemies that are sensitive to it.

I change his defense crystals to match what spell types I'm using - generally electricity - so he won't take as much FF damage. As for attack, whatever the enemy is not immune to.

I find the Nature crystals with their + armor and + physical resistance well suited to her tanking duties.

Are the explosions from "walking bomb" spirit damage? I tend to blow a lot of things up around Shale. If she has some good spirit resistance, it would help eh?

Yup. I use double Nature crystals except against nature-immunes such as revenants, or when fighting dragons. Spirit are nice as well.

As above posters have said; Nature Crystals gives Shale a lot more "tanky" stats such as Physical Resistance, Constitution and Armour. Just be sure to keep other Crystals around for special boss fights/encounters, too.

The missing manual says nature in the description but spirit is listed in the effects. It's in the Spirit school of magic so spirit makes the most sense to me.Dark83 wrote...

You know what? I do remember the COLOR of the numbers dictating what type of damage it was. Now, the DoT portion I do remember being purple color (spirit?), but the explosion damage, I could swear was white. (Physical?)

I like Fire crystals for armour (because then I can Fireball or Inferno enemies clustered around Shale) and Spirit crystals for weapons (because almost nothing is immune to Spirit damage).

Green shiny ones have tank stats and then there are some other fire ones that do melee crit chance and what not.
