Core Slots
The 2 core slots allow customization with Abyss Cores to tailor the shield's bonuses to specific combat situations or builds. Players might consider slotting defensive cores for additional survivability or utility cores that complement the shield's strengths. Cores can be embedded or removed through a witch NPC at no cost, making experimentation easy.
Usage Notes
As a large shield with DEF 4 and no movement or attack speed modifiers, the Bekker Large Shield prioritizes blocking coverage over agility. Its wider frame provides more reliable protection against sweeping enemy attacks compared to standard-sized shields. Players who prefer a defensive, patient combat approach will find this shield effective in the early and mid-game. The two core slots allow customization with Abyss Cores, and refinement at a Blacksmith can raise its base defense for tougher encounters later in the game. With a sell price of only 65 Copper, the shield has minimal resale value, but its crafting cost is also low.
