Overview

- darksouls.wikidot.com
- Upgrade path
- Cannot be upgraded at all.
- Requirements
- Str 5 / Dex 0 / Int 0 / Fth 0 (E-rank scaling across the board)
- Special effect
- Not primarily a shield: holding it in the left hand and pressing block activates a light aura effect similar to the Cast Light miracle, illuminating dark areas. Also functions as a weak strike/fire weapon in its own right. In the Tomb of the Giants specifically, it reveals blue glowing orbs marking safe paths, and can open light-sealed illusory walls in Oolacile Township.
- Description
- none recorded
- Note
- Included per DSAP's own categorization, not because it functions as a defensive shield. Tradeable to Snuggly the Crow for a Ring of Fog.
