Name
raise shields — focus on defense and shielding, at the cost of stamina and accuracy
Synopsis
raise shields
Description
Fighting isn't just weaponry and yelling and bleeding. Well-trained fighters are instructed on how to properly wield, defend with, and utilize their shields. While shields are raised, accuracy is reduced by 10%, but damage dealt while bashing is increased by 50%- as is stamina consumption. Going into this defensive position prepares the fighter for both strategic defense and offense, by granting increased damage from spells reflected by shield block, as well as damage dealt by echoing strikes.
Shield blocking becomes more efficient, and the strategic focus on defending pairs well with other, similar, shield-based tactics.
