Parameter Bonus: Strength, Dexterity,Magic, Fire, Lightning and Dark bonuses - The scaling multiplier applied to the [Attack: stat]. Scaling quality is from highest to lowest as follows: S/A/B/C/D/E.
The higher the player's [Str, Dex, Mag, Fire, Light] stat, the higher the [Attack Bonus: Stat] is (found on the player status screen). The higher the scaling letter, the higher the percent multiplier applied to the [Attack: Stat].
This resulting bonus damage is added to the base physical damage of the weapon and is shown in the equipment screen in blue numbers as a "+ X".
Durability: The weapon's HP, when the durability hits 0, the effectiveness of its attacks become weakened to the point of almost uselessness. When an items durability is low, a message will come up saying "Weapon At Risk!" at this point the weapon does not perform at it's best.
Weight: How much the item weights when equipped.
Stability: How well the player keeps stance after being hit
Attack Type: Defines what kind of swing set the weapon has.

AnonymousIf you care to cheese, you can get this almost without hitting a single enemy (Not sure if 100%). Google dragonrider cheese - just make him fall of the ledge

Better elemental resistances, easier to acquire, and identical stability to the Tower Shield. Only drawbacks are 0.5 more weight, and 5 more STR requirement. Not the best for a tank, but for low-STR builds that want a greatshield it's a great candidate.

Hey, does it's job, good lightning and fire defense, infuse with magic or dark to up those stats while still maintaining respectable amounts in the others. Can be acquired early game, especially for those playing SotFS who don't want to deal with the dragon to fight Ornstein and get the Tower Shield.
Love this one. I'm not good at parries so I don't bother with a shield unless it can mitigate a lot for it's weight and this one does.
Having access to it early is just the cherry on top.
