Moaning Shield is a Greatshield 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.

A deformed greatshield given to Eygon of Carim upon being conferred knighthood.

The giant woman's face that protects Eygon is that of his sister, some years his senior.

Skill: Moan
Offer a gentle prayer to the shield, causing the woman's face to give out a low moan and attract enemies.

Moaning Shield Notes and Tips

• Cannot be Infused.
• Can be buffed with Magic Shield or Great Magic Shield
• Reinforced with Twinkling Titanite.
• Provides an average block of 78.6%. Exceptionally solid blocking, but requires the highest strength of all greatshields at 50 points. Also boasts the second highest stability in game, 82 at +5.
• Can be given to Pickle Pee, Pump-a-Rum Crow in exchange for a Blessed Gem.
• Using Magic Shield on this shield when maximally upgraded will result in no stamina loss through blocking, however, elemental damage will chip through.
• At +4 it can survive a fully upgraded, full Ledo's Great Hammer weapon art if you have around 40 endurance.

Location/Where to Find

• Dropped by Eygon of Carim.
• Looted from Eygon of Carim's corpse late-game in the old cell of Irina of Carim.
