Shield

Buff ID	10017 (new) / 10002 (old)
Passive ID	10500

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). A non-elemental shield will not take any additional damage due to non-elemental shields not having any elemental weakness.

Proc ID 10012[]

This is the old version of the Shield buff exclusive to enemies. This absorbs all types of damage.

Proc ID 10017[]

This is the version of the Shield buff used by units. 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.

Purging Shield[]

Bond Levels	Chance of Purging
