Effect
Press L2 + R2 during Shield Toss to imbue it with an element. The shield carries elemental energy as it bounces between targets, applying elemental effects to each enemy it hits.
Combat Tips
Elemental Shield Toss is particularly strong because Shield Toss bounces between multiple targets, spreading the elemental effect across a group. Frost imbue is especially effective here, as it can slow several enemies at once. This skill requires Imbue Element Level 3, so it is a mid-to-late game option.

Imbue Pairing
Elemental Shield Toss inherits whichever element Damiane has active through Imbue Element. Each element applies a distinct secondary effect as the shield bounces, on top of the base bounce damage:
Element | Effect While Bouncing |
|---|---|
Flame | Applies burn damage over time on each hit |
Frost | Slows each enemy struck, stacks to freeze on repeated bounces |
Lightning | Chains secondary arcs to adjacent enemies from each bounce |
Wind | Small knockback on each bounce, disrupts enemy animations |
