Shields

Crude Square Shield

This is a basic shield with little durability and lesser absorption than the advanced shield types.

Reinforced Round Shield

This shield gives a lot more damage reduction then the Crude Shield, but requires more advanced materials.

Reinforced Round Shield (with plain leather)

Adding leather to the Reinforced Shield will give it more durability. This is the best shield that can be made unless you are of the Blackguard class.

Blackguard Square Shield

This is the best shield in the game and can be made by the Blackguard class.

Storage

Shields are usually put in the hotbar when carried. Shields can not be placed on the tool rack, but they can be placed on an armor stand.
