  • This is an Ash of War Skill, associated with the Ash of War: Barricade Shield.
  • FP Cost: 12
  • Duration: 10 Seconds
  • This Skill is not Chargeable
  • Gives the shield Tier 4 Hardness
  • Halves the stamina cost when blocking attacks for medium and small shields, irrespective of the shields "Guard Boost". Barricade Shield does not change the Guard Boost stat (i.e. if it would cost 30 stamina to block an attack, now it costs 15 to block the same attack). Great shields only receive a 30% decrease in stamina cost.

  • If performed without FP, the shield will not be buffed, but the blocking animation will still occur
  • If the skill is used in right hand, it will 2 hand the shield.
  • Note: As of Patch 1.07, the effect duration increased from 6 to 10 seconds and the increase to guard boost differs depending on the shield.
