Combat Usage

The Twisted Thorns 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.
