Lore

Fortain, the Cursed Knight's shield. He gained formidable power through a contract with Hexe Marie, but in the end it was the contract that bound him to a miserable fate. While not as storied as higher-grade shields, the Shield of the Phantom is a reliable piece of equipment for those exploring the dangerous lands of Pywel.

Combat Usage

The Shield of the Phantom is a standard shield that can be paired with any one-handed weapon. Its compact size allows for faster guard recovery and more fluid transitions between blocking and attacking compared to large shields.

With a base Defense of 2, this shield provides basic protection. Players should focus on parry timing and evasion rather than sustained blocking, as heavy attacks from stronger enemies can drain stamina quickly through the shield.

The high Defense Efficiency of 25 means the Shield of the Phantom is particularly effective at mitigating damage per stamina point spent blocking. This makes it one of the more stamina-efficient shields available.
