Shield

Shield is a buff that adds a second HP bar that can absorb specific types of damage. It can stack with Barrier. It functions similarly to Barrier. Each shield has a set amount of HP and defense and an optional element type (i.e. it can be a single element or be non-elemental). While the shield is active, it will absorb additional damage (DoT), countered damage, and normal hit damage for a number of turns or until the bar depletes.

Trivia
This buff replaces the old version of Shield, which has ID 10002 and was very buggy.
