Shield of Night

A Shadow of the Erdtree small shield of deep black that deals physical and magic damage and scales with Dexterity. It needs 8 Strength and 15 Dexterity, and its guard is especially strong against magic and other non-physical damage.

Its unique skill, Revenge of the Night, releases magic-infused darkness. Using it right after blocking an attack makes it stronger.
