Standard Shields Strike / Parry
Enchantable:
Yes/No

No Special

Yellow Quartz Shield is a Standard Shield in Dark Souls 2. Standard Shields can be used not only to block an enemy but to parry their attack as well. This allows a riposte, a free attack by the player for a high amount of damage. Enemy attacks can be interrupted with a parry (pressing the Strong Attack button for the shield) and requires practice to learn the timing. 

 

Acquired From

  • Pre-order bonus & Black Armor Edition DLC.
  • Can be bought from Chancellor Wellager in the Drangleic castle.

 

Hints and Tips:

  • A useful shield for early in the game due to its high Stability, though the physical block leaves a little to be desired.
  • Good shield for great magic shield buff due to it's low weight and high stability.
