Dragonslayer Greatshield is a Shield in Dark Souls 3. Greatshields usually weigh a decent amount and provide the best protection in the game. They are often used by players who have high Strength, as they require a good amount in order to use.

Melted iron shield that once formed part of the Dragonslayer Armour.

The shield offers high protection to lightning, which the Dragonslayer commanded as his own, and its Skill has faint echoes of the Dragonslayer's own fighting style.

Skill: Shield Bash
Without lowering your guard, strike the enemy with the shield to knock them back or stagger them. Works while equipped in either hand.

Dragonslayer Greatshield Notes and Tips:

  • Can not be Infused.
  • Can be Buffed.
  • Reinforced with Titanite Scales.
  • Provides an average block of 82.6%, the second highest in the game, but also stands as the second heaviest greatshield, weighing 6 units more than the majority of greatshields.
  • Especially significant because it has the highest lightning resist of all greatshields, which on average let in more lightning damage than any other type.
  • Stability is 79 at +5
  • Has a unique shield bash technique. Anchors shield in the ground without lowering guard and rams with it, knocking many enemies down. It also negates most attacks during the shield bash.
