Shields are a type of equipment in Dark Souls II. They are a defensive weapon. Like their Dark Souls counterparts, shields have much more damage reduction and Stability than other weapons of their weight. Small and Medium Shields have another unique ability of having a block and parry with only one hand.

Although Disc Chime functions as a shield, it's not listed here because in the game it's only classified as a chime, plus none of its blocking characteristics increase with reinforcement.
