Notes

  • Requires eight Strength and weighs 3.5. Standard affinity blocks 94% Physical damage and has 49 base Guard Boost.
  • Despite the flame crest, Standard Fire protection is only 32%; Holy protection is 50%. The picture on its face is not an additional fire-defense passive.
  • Starts with Parry, which costs no FP. It is a medium shield with partial physical protection rather than a small shield simply because it is light and wooden.
  • A fixed corpse pickup in Ailing Village. It is separate from the Frenzied Flame incantation inside nearby Callu Baptismal Church.
  • Upgrade it with ordinary Smithing Stones to +25. The listed blocking percentages and base Guard Boost describe Standard affinity; changing affinity can trade physical protection for an element.
  • Can use compatible shield Ashes of War. Shield Grease or Scholar's Shield can improve guarding; these are defensive shield buffs rather than permission to apply ordinary offensive grease to every affinity.
