- Note
- Stronger Magic Shield. Raises the left-hand shield's stability by 50%; blocked attacks deal no damage and use no stamina. Shield buff; cannot stack with Magic Shield. Cancelled by two-handing. Fully blocks heavy sorceries (Pursuers, Dark Bead, Homing Crystal Soulmass, Crystal Soul Spear) and a Dragon King Greataxe blast. Not a personal buff, so Power Within and Replenishment can run at the same time. Lasts 15 seconds.
