Ward - Shield
Ward is a legendary shield that boosts your damage when depleted and your health regeneration when active. In this page, you will find more information about what this shield does, where you can find it, and what stats it can roll.
Stats and Model
Unique Weapon Effect
Free me master, see me shiver. — The Shield gives bonuses to weapon damage, shield damage, and health regeneration while the shield is depleted.
Drop Location
This Hyperion shield is a Legendary drop that can be acquired from killing Graveward.
How to use the Shield
This shield is a core part of melee builds due to the large amount of bonus melee damage offered while the shield is depleted. In order to utilise this bonus you should try to prevent the shield from recharging by intentionally taking small amounts of damage in addition to avoiding any skills and equipment that boost shield regeneration. To compensate for the shield being constantly depleted, alternative sources of sustain should be used.
