Version 0.13: This article may not be up to date for the latest stable release of Crawl.
Just in case you had trouble getting hit.

+15 shield

-5 EV

Desirability

Unfortunately, "Bullseye" is a fairly useless shield. If you're looking for more SH in exchange for EV, then you should probably just upgrade to a large shield. Only kobolds and halflings might consider wearing this, and even they probably wouldn't: the SH increase is really not worth the EV penalty, especially considering that plenty of non-artefact shields offer useful resistances.

History

This artefact seems to be affected by some sort of magic that causes it to continually grow. In very early versions of Crawl, it was a buckler. It was then upgraded to a shield. In 0.14, it will be a large shield. Some versions of the changelog seem to put this last change in 0.13, but that is incorrect.
