"Shields allow you to cover yourself or your friend from enemy hits."
— In-game description
Shields provide good armour and shielding bonuses to characters. They are equipped in left hand slot. The best way to use shields is to combine them with 1-handed swords (for great shielding bonus from both) or with 1-handed axes (for good armour bonus from shields and great damage from axes).
The best shield is made of mithrill and diamond.
Unlocking shields crafting requires 1 advancement point and unlocked Light armours crafting.
