[[Shields]] are a kind of armour worn in one hand, preventing the use of two handed weapons, which use the [[Shields skill]]. Unlike other armour, shields increase a character's [[SH]] defense, giving you a chance at blocking physical (and some magical) attacks entirely. Certain spells can also grant you an SH score.

==Shield Penalties==
 
==Shield Penalties==
Wearing a shield also gives penalties to attack speed, attack damage, and spellcasting, along with EV penalties of -0.8 ([[buckler]]), -3 ([[shield]]), or -5 ([[large shield]]). While the penalty for wearing a small [[buckler]] is almost negligible, a [[large shield]] can seriously slow your attacks and make spellcasting unreliable. Sufficient Shields skill will reduce or even negate these penalties. The amount needed varies by race, but can be found in the description of the shield in-game:

===EV Penalty===

Your shield EV penalty is equal to:<ref>{{source ref|0.30.0|player.cc|5739}}</ref>

 +
[[File:Shield encumbrance ev.png|500px|alt=<code>2/5 * encumbrance^2 / (5 + str) * (27 - shield_skill) / 27</code>]]
 +
 
 +
[[Strength|Stronger]] characters are less encumbered by shields, and anyone can eliminate shield penalty by maxing out the Shields skill.

Your Shield penalty is (Shield EV penalty) - (Shields skill)/(5 + (Size factor)). Shield EV penalty and Size factor can be looked up in these tables:
+
The EV penalty is subtracted directly from your evasion. Your unrounded EV penalty is also used to calculate the other penalties.

When attacking with any kind of weapon (including unarmed), if you are wearing a shield and your Shield penalty is greater than zero, the game throws two dice with (Shield penalty) sides. The smaller value rolled is added to your attack delay.
+
For reference, 12 SpellFailure = 1 level in every spell school (excluding [[Spellcasting]]). 15 SpellFailure = 1 level in every school, including [[Spellcasting]].
  
==Blocking==
+
This number is then modified by various functions described in the [[spell success]] page.
===Effect===
 
It's possible to block a melee attack or a ranged projectile attack if you wear a shield of some kind or are under the effect of a magical shield (the [[Helm card]]'s Magic Shield, [[Qazlal]]'s Storm Shield, or [[the Shining One]]'s Divine Shield) or have the [[Good_mutations#Large_Bone_Plates|Large Bones Plates]] mutation. Your ability to block missiles doesn't benefit from spells like [[Repel Missiles]] or [[Deflect Missiles]]. If the attacker's pierce value is less than the defender's blocking value, the attack does no damage. Shield blocking is done before rolling your [[evasion]] or your [[AC]], but if you have already blocked some attacks in that turn, your blocking ability will be decreased greatly.  
 
  
All melee attacks can be blocked (except a successful stabbing), but many ranged attacks are unblockable:
+
==[[Ego]]s==
 +
[[Buckler]]s, [[kite shield]]s, and [[tower shield]]s can spawn with the following egos<ref>{{source ref|0.29.1|makeitem.cc|741}}</ref>:
 +
*~3%, [[Resistance_(ego)|resistance]]
 +
*10%, [[fire resistance]]
 +
*10%, [[cold resistance]]
 +
*10%, [[poison resistance]]
 +
*10%, [[positive energy]]
 +
*19%, [[reflection]]
 +
*39%, [[protection]]
  
*Bolt spells: [[Bolt of Fire]], [[Bolt of Cold]], [[Lightning Bolt]], [[Bolt of Draining]], [[Venom Bolt]], [[Bolt of Magma]], [[Bolt of Inaccuracy]], [[Shock]]
+
Shields of [[cold resistance|cold]] and [[fire resistance]] can also occasionally be found in [[ice cave]]s and [[volcano]]es, respectively.
*Explosions: [[Fireball]], [[Hellfire]], [[Fire Storm]], [[Ice Storm]], [[Conjure Ball Lightning]], [[Lee's Rapid Deconstruction]], [[exploding (brand)|exploding]]-branded weapons
 
*Other electricity-based beams: [[Static Discharge]], [[Chain Lightning]]
 
*Enchantments: [[Agony]], [[Pain]], [[Confuse]], [[Mesmerise]], etc
 
*Beams with perfect accuracy: [[Magic Dart]], [[Sticky Flame]] (only the player's version)
 
*Other ranged attacks that are not beams: [[Shatter]], [[Tornado]], [[Airstrike]], [[Smite]], [[Ozocubu's Refrigeration]], [[Freeze]], etc
 
  
Some examples of ranged attacks that can be blocked: [[Iron shot]], [[Poison Arrow]], [[Orb of Destruction]], [[Lehudib's Crystal Spear]], [[Iskenderun's Mystic Blast]] (the explosion is special), [[Throw Icicle]], [[Stone Arrow]], [[Throw Flame]], [[Throw Frost]], [[Flame Tongue]], [[Sting]], [[Sandblast]]
+
Every [[orb]] has its own ego; see the [[orb]] page for more details.
  
===Calculation===
+
==Blocking==
The defender's blocking value depends on the nature of the shield:
+
As long as your [[SH]] is above 0, you can block melee and ranged "projectile" attacks.
  
Physical shields:
+
All melee attacks can be blocked (except for successful [[stab]]s), but many types of ranged attacks are unblockable:
SH = Block × (1 + Shield skill/40)
+
*[[Penetration|Penetrating]] attacks: [[Javelin]]s, [[Bolt spell]]s, [[Starburst]]...
+ Enchantment bonus + Stat bonus
+
*Almost everything with perfect [[accuracy]]: [[Magic Dart]], [[Smiting]], [[Chain Lightning]], Explosions ([[Fireball]], [[Damnation]]), [[Shatter]]...
+ min(0.38×Shield skill, .57 + 0.19×Shield skill)
+
:[[Orb of Destruction]] is the only spell that ignores EV, but can be blocked.
 +
*Enchantments: [[Agony]], [[Pain]], [[Confuse]], everything that checks [[willpower]]
  
or [[Helm card]] (this does not stack with a physical shield):
+
Some examples of ranged attacks that can be blocked:
SH = 4.5 + 0.375×[[Evocations]]
+
*[[Ranged Weapons]], like [[shortbow]]s and [[sling]]s
 +
*Spells that fire single-target projectiles, like [[Iron Shot]], [[Poison Arrow]], [[Orb of Destruction]], [[Sandblast]]
  
and then on top of either of those:
+
If the attacker's pierce value is less than the defender's blocking value (see below for details), the attack does no damage. However, there is a hard limit on the amount of attacks you can block per player turn. Shield blocking is done before rolling your [[evasion]] or your [[AC]]. Blocking doesn't benefit from [[repulsion]] or [[EV]].
+ Divine shield bonus
 
+ Qazlal shield bonus
 
+ Mutation bonus
 
+ Cigotuvi's Embrace bonus
 
+ Amulet of reflection bonus
 
+ Any SH bonus from artifacts
 
 
 
  
For a physical shield (Buckler, Shield and Large Shield), '''Block''' is the shield's blocking value, equal to the base shield bonus (3 for Buckler, 8 for Shield, 13 for Large Shield), modified by a size factor:
+
Your ability to block missiles doesn't benefit from [[repulsion]] or [[EV]].
  
 +
===Max Blocks===
 +
Each type of shield (or lack thereof) can only block a certain number of attacks per player turn:

*'''Mutation bonus''' is +2/4/6 SH depending on your level of the [[Good_mutations#Large_Bone_Plates|Large Bones Plates]] mutation.
+
All other sources of SH ([[Qazlal]] shield, [[amulet of reflection]]...) are flat bonuses, and are added on top of the physical shield bonus. The final value is rounded to the nearest integer and displayed as the player's SH value.
  
The resulting value is rounded to the nearest integer and displayed as the player's SH value.

If you are [[paralysed]], [[petrified]], or if [[dexterity]] is 0, then SH is set to 0 regardless of any other factors.
  
For reference, a 15-Dex, 15-Str character wearing a buckler has an average blocking value of:

Version 0.31: This article is up to date for the latest stable release of Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup.

For the skill, see Shields (skill). For the item formerly known as just a shield, see kite shield.

“Let who will boast their courage in the field,

I find but little safety from my shield.
Nature's, not honour's, law we must obey:
This made me cast my useless shield away,
And by a prudent flight and cunning save
A life, which valour could not, from the grave.
A better buckler I can soon regain;
But who can get another life again?”
-Archilochos. 7th cent. B.C. trans. William H. Goodwin, 1878.

Shields are a kind of armour worn on one hand, preventing the use of two-handed weapons; they make use of the Shields skill. Unlike other armour, shields increase a character's SH defense, giving you a chance at blocking physical (and some magical) attacks entirely. There are three types of shield, from smallest to largest:

Orbs also occupy your off-hand slot, but provide no shielding, instead granting assorted magical effects from their special egos.

Some magical effects can also increase your SH score.

Shield Penalties

Wearing a shield imposes penalties to attack speed, EV, and spellcasting. While the penalty for wearing a buckler is almost negligible, a tower shield can seriously slow your attacks and make spellcasting unreliable.

EV Penalty

Your shield EV penalty is equal to:[1]

2/5 * encumbrance^2 / (5 + str) * (27 - shield_skill) / 27

Stronger characters are less encumbered by shields, and anyone can eliminate shield penalty by maxing out the Shields skill.

Shield type Encumbrance
Buckler 5
Kite shield 10
Tower shield 15

The EV penalty is subtracted directly from your evasion. Your unrounded EV penalty is also used to calculate the other penalties.

Attack Penalty

This penalty applies to melee attacks (including unarmed attacks), ranged weapons, and throwing weapons.

The shield penalty, in units of EV, is converted into attack delay, in units of aut. When you attack with a shield, it'll take from EV_penalty to EV_penalty + 0.05 aut longer.[2] If the penalty is not an integer, it is rounded in a weighted manner.

Note that it is in units of aut, not decaAut or "turns". For reference, having 1 EV penalty slows you down by 1 aut = 0.1 turn.

Spell Penalty

The spellcasting penalty is significantly more complicated. Shields add to "SpellFailure", not to be confused with your actual % chance of failure:

spell failure = 19 * ev_penalty

For reference, 12 SpellFailure = 1 level in every spell school (excluding Spellcasting). 15 SpellFailure = 1 level in every school, including Spellcasting.

This number is then modified by various functions described in the spell success page.

Egos

Bucklers, kite shields, and tower shields can spawn with the following egos[3]:

Shields of cold and fire resistance can also occasionally be found in ice caves and volcanoes, respectively.

Every orb has its own ego; see the orb page for more details.

Blocking

As long as your SH is above 0, you can block melee and ranged "projectile" attacks.

All melee attacks can be blocked (except for successful stabs), but many types of ranged attacks are unblockable:

Orb of Destruction is the only spell that ignores EV, but can be blocked.

Some examples of ranged attacks that can be blocked:

If the attacker's pierce value is less than the defender's blocking value (see below for details), the attack does no damage. However, there is a hard limit on the amount of attacks you can block per player turn. Shield blocking is done before rolling your evasion or your AC. Blocking doesn't benefit from repulsion or EV.

Your ability to block missiles doesn't benefit from repulsion or EV.

Max Blocks

Each type of shield (or lack thereof) can only block a certain number of attacks per player turn:

Shield type Max Blocks
None 1
Buckler 2
Kite shield 3
Tower shield 4

SH calculation

If you are wielding a physical shield, its SH is determined as follows:[4]

All other sources of SH (Qazlal shield, amulet of reflection...) are flat bonuses, and are added on top of the physical shield bonus. The final value is rounded to the nearest integer and displayed as the player's SH value.

If you are paralysed, petrified, or if dexterity is 0, then SH is set to 0 regardless of any other factors.

Chance to block

The game compares the attacker's "pierce value" to the defender's "block value".

The attacker's pierce value is dependent on their to-hit (accuracy) and the type of attack:

  • Melee attack: 1d(15 + to_hit/2)
  • Ranged attack: 1d(1.3×to hit)

The defender's blocking value is equal to:[6]

  • All attacks: 2d(4×SH)/6 - 1
  • Divide by 3 against melee attacks from invisible opponents.

If the blocking value is greater or equal than the attacker's pierce value, the attack is blocked.

History

  • Prior to 0.31, shields did not have a hard limit on the number of attacks you could block. However, for each attack you blocked, future blocks attempts were less likely (attackers' pierce value was 1d(15 + to_hit/2 +5 × past_blocks^2) for melee, similar for ranged). Also, instead of gaining 0.82 SH by default, the first three levels gave an extra +0.19 SH/level, and you only got 0.25 SH by default.
  • Prior to 0.30, species size impacted shield encumbrance and SH score. Larger species were less encumbered by shields, but received slightly less SH from kite shields. Smaller species were the opposite, more SH from bucklers/kite shields, but more encumbered by them. Strength had no effect on shield penalties.
  • In 0.28, magical orbs were added as a new category of off-hand equipment.
  • Prior to 0.28, shields had a different EV penalty formula, EV_penalty - skill / (5 + size_factor) (buckler = 0.8 EV, kite shield = 3, tower shield = 5). Using shields at 0 skill was more encumbering, but certain skill thresholds (regular size species: 4 skill for buckler, 15 for kite shield, 25 for tower shield) negated penalties entirely. They also had a to-hit penalty. In addition, the two larger shields used strength (along with dexterity) to determine bonus SH.
  • Prior to 0.27, shields had a smaller and randomized penalty to attack delay (previously: smaller of {1d(20 * EV)/20, 1d(20 * EV)/20} rounded down).
  • Prior to 0.25, kite shields were known as just "shields" and tower shields were called "large shields".
  • Prior to 0.17, unarmed attacks had a speed penalty when attacking with a shield equipped.
  • Prior to 0.16, the amount of skill required to negate penalties for wearing a shield was more complex.
