The Oath Ring Shield has 2 Abyss Core slots, allowing players to customize the shield with passive bonuses. Cores can be socketed or removed at no cost through a witch NPC, making it easy to experiment with different setups.
Fortification I (Defense +3): A straightforward defense boost that helps offset this shield's base defense.
Fortitude I (Guard Stamina Consumption -3.0%): Reduces stamina drained when blocking, making sustained defense more efficient.
Aegis I (Damage Reduction 1.0): Provides flat damage reduction per hit, useful for absorbing chip damage from enemy combos.
The Oath Ring Shield is a standard one-hand shield that balances defensive stats with mobility. Standard shields are lighter than large shields, allowing for quicker movement and attack transitions during combat.
With bonuses to both Attack Speed and Movement Speed, this shield supports an aggressive, mobile fighting style. The faster attack speed pairs well with one-handed weapons for quick combo strings, while the movement speed bonus helps with repositioning during fights.
At base Defense 2, the shield scales to 14 at max refinement. Refinement should be prioritized if you plan to keep this shield as your primary defensive option for an extended period.
