I know I'm late on this, but I got this achievement the other day, and the last item I ascended was the Greatshield of Artorias. In the moments before I ascended the shield, I had literally every other weapon, shield, armor, and ring in the game (DLC aside - I'm a hoarder :P), so I think it's safe to say that the shield is required. It wouldn't make much sense to exclude it, anyway; the only reason I can think of is that the achievement was being forgiving, but since this is Dark Souls, that's just... not right.
