The Bloodshield is a medium shield in Dark Souls.

In-Game Description

The Bloodshield spoken of in the lost legends. The red of blood is slightly enchanted, and boosts various resistances.

Availability[]

The Bloodshield is acquired from a corpse in the Painted World of Ariamis, near an Undead Dragon.

Characteristics[]

The Bloodshield boosts all base resistances by 50%. It has poor stability, and is therefore not very useful as a general purpose shield, but is best used when the player needs additional resistance against status effects.

This shield has medium deflection and normal parry speed. The crystal durability is 24.

Resistance Defense[]

Along with Physical and Elemental damage reduction, weapons also have hidden stats that reduce the amount of status build-up while blocking.

Bleed 92%
Poison 90%
Poison 90%
Curse 85%
