- For the Dark Souls II variant, see Spirit Tree Shield.
The Spirit Tree Crest Shield is a medium shield in Dark Souls III.
In-Game Description
- A knight's shield engraved with a crest depicting a spirit tree.
- One of the enchanted blue shields. The Spirit Tree Crest Shield greatly reduces lightning damage.
- Skill: Parry
Repel an attack at the right time to follow up with a critical hit. Works while equipped in either hand.
Availability[]
Found in Lothric Castle, in one of the chests in the room where the Boreal Outrider Knight dwells.
Characteristics[]
One of two returning crest shields from Dark Souls II and one of the four enchanted blue shields in Dark Souls III, the Spirit Tree Crest Shield specializes in blocking Lightning damage.
It possesses moderate wielding requirements with good weight and stability, making it a good general-purpose medium shield. However, much like its Fire-resistant cousin the Spirit Tree Crest Shield is completely outclassed by a comparable medium shield in the Lothric Knight Shield, which beats it in everything but Strength requirement and weight, while also being available to the player much earlier.
