Class: Combat Skills Attribute: Strength Pedagogy: Physical Training
The ability to use shields in combat. Influences both your ability to use a shield in its main function, deflecting attacks, and in using it offensively.
- Notes
Shield types, in order of usefulness
- Target
- Square
- Kite
- Tower
Tower shields may require 2 hands to use
Shields do crushing damage to a medium area when attacking
Massive Blow and Precision Strike add small amounts to the deflection rating of a shield
Unsure if this is a fault of the combat system, or of skills, but shields will not block melee weapon attacks. They will stop unarmed and ranged attacks.
