# Large Leather Shield

<div id="bkmrk-in-game-description-"><table><tr><td>![]()</td></tr><tr><td></td></tr></table>

### In-Game Description

---

*A Leather-covered shield. Preferred by hunters.  
  
Inferior to metal shields in terms of stability and  
physical damage reduction, but easy to use and  
weighing so little that it hardly requires any strength to bear.*

### Availability

---

Forest of Fallen Giants treasure. Just before the elevator down to the Last Giant and the shortcut door to the Cardinal Tower bonfire, there is a room to the right with a Crystal Lizard and some hollows. Tucked away in the corner is a short stairway down to a boarded door. A dead body with the shield is huddled at the bottom of the stairs.

### Key

---

<table><tr><td>**Damage:**</td><td>The Damage stat dictates how much damage the shield does when used for bashing. The Damage stats for a shield are A / B / C / D / E:

- A is Physical Damage
- B is Magical Damage
- C is Fire Damage
- D is Lightning Damage
- E is Dark Damage

Most shields deal Strike damage, with a few exceptions.  
Certain enemies are weak or strong against different damage types.

</td></tr><tr><td>**Counter Strength:**</td><td>Damage multiplier when hitting an enemy that is performing an action such as attacking. Value of 100 means no extra damage.</td></tr><tr><td>**Poise Damage:**</td><td>The ability of the shield to break the poise of an enemy.</td></tr><tr><td>**Durability:**</td><td>The durability of the shield. The shield will break when durability reaches 0.</td></tr><tr><td>**Weight:**</td><td>The weight of the shield. Note that carrying over 70% of your Equip Weight will reduce the speed of your rolls, while going  
over 100% will reduce your regular speed to walking and attempts to roll or backstep will leave you momentarily stunned.</td></tr><tr><td>**Stats Needed:**</td><td>Determines how high various Stats must be in order to wield the shield effectively.  
The requirement stats for shields are A / B / C / D:

- A is the Strength required
- B is the Dexterity required
- C is the Intelligence required
- D is the Faith required

While it is possible to use a shield with lower-than-required Strength, your character will suffer a severe penalty to damage reduction.

</td></tr><tr><td>**Aux Effect:**</td><td>The Aux Effect stat dictates how effective the shield will be at causing the effect. The Aux Effect stats for a shield are A / B:

- A is Poison Effect
- B is Bleed Effect

</td></tr><tr><td>**Aux Effect Reduction:**</td><td>The Aux Effect Reduction % of the shield. It dictates how much effect the shield mitigates while blocking.  
The Aux Effect Reduction % stats for a shield are A / B / C / D:

- A is Poison Effect
- B is Bleed Effect
- C is Petrify Effect
- D is Curse Effect

</td></tr><tr><td>**Damage Reduction:**</td><td>The Damage Reduction % of the shield. It dictates how much damage the shield mitigates while blocking.  
The Damage Reduction % stats for a shield are A / B / C / D / E:

- A is Physical Damage
- B is Magical Damage
- C is Fire Damage
- D is Lightning Damage
- E is Dark Damage

</td></tr><tr><td>**Stability:**</td><td>Determines the amount of stamina expended to block an incoming attack. A higher stability also allows you to block stronger  
attacks without breaking guard and reduces the amount of stamina depleted from blocking attacks.</td></tr></table>
