Shield Infusion is a Mercenary skill in Outward, requiring a shield.

Cannot learn if the player chooses to learn Blood Bullet.

Description[]

Block an elemental attack. When you next block, an elemental explosion will burst from you.

Effects[]

Activating this skill starts a blocking animation, during which you can block any type of attack (including magical blasts). If you block an attack which deals elemental (non-Physical physical) damage during the animation, you gain a Shield Imbue of that element. In the case of multiple elements on one attack, the priority is Fire > Frost > Lightning > Decay > Ethereal.

When you have a Shield Imbue, the next blocked melee attack will create an area-of-effect explosion. The imbuement fades if not consumed after 10 minutes.

The damage of the explosion is:

  • 1.3x equipped Shield damage as Ethereal Ethereal damage
  • 2.0x equipped Shield damage as the element of the imbue (either Ethereal Decay Lightning Frost Fire)
  • 2.0x equipped shield Impact Impact damage

Notes[]

  • Activating Shield Infusion again and blocking a second elemental attack will replace the current infusion.
  • In the case of multi-hit effects (such as Burning Man's flamethrower), the skill will only block one of the blasts, not all of them.
