How to Use Scholar's Shield

Reduces Stamina Consumption When Guarding

When a shield is buffed with the Scholar's Shield spell it will decrease your stamina consumption whenever the buffed shield is used to block enemy attacks. However, the amount of boost it produces is not reflected in the shield's stats.

Effect Stacks With Greatshield Talisman

You can further increase your guarding ability by using the Greatshield Talisman as it will stack with the effect of the Scholar's Shield spell.
