Version 0.19: This article may not be up to date for the latest stable release of Crawl.

Not to be confused with a mundane shield bearing a resistance ego, which will also be called a 'shield of resistance'.

A bronze shield, looking almost exactly like a tortoise's shell. It was built by the adherents of an obscure minor faith, who imbued it with the power of their god. As the god is said to, this shield protects against sword and sling, frost and flame.

Desirability

The shield of Resistance is a wonderful item for almost any character. Offering two very useful resistances and a magic resistance boost on par with a ring of protection from magic, it's hard to find a better option for your shield slot. Any character that isn't already committed to wielding a two-handed weapon should consider making use of this beautiful item should they find it.

History

Prior to 0.15, this unrand was a +5 shield.
