Raise Shield

Raise your Shield to Block all incoming Blockable hits. Release immediately after Blocking when an enemy is close to perform a Shield Bash, damaging and Stunning enemies. While your Shield is raised you cannot be Light Stunned by hits you Block, but Blocking too much damage may Heavy Stun you. You cannot Evade while your Shield is raised, but Evasion instead grants an equal chance to avoid this Heavy Stun buildup.
