Shields can be used The default shield given to [[Shield-Bashing|new accounts is a medium wooden shield bash]] an opponent, stunning them for a short time and causing a small amount of damage. Stunning opens the enemy to attack, and also resets their attack position to centerwhich cannot be improved.
Shields are In PVP, to block arrows effectively, you need to turn your body approximately 90` to the right so that your shield is facing the enemy archer. The shield size also extremely determines the effective at arrow blocking arrowsradius. Smaller shields will have a tighter radius. They are only effective if you are looking at your target With regards to shield bashing, metal shields have a slightly higher chance to succeed and do not block arrows and attacks from behind youdeal a slightly longer stun as opposed to their wooden counterparts. Larger shields also have a slightly longer cooldown timer for shield bashing.
==Theory==
''NOTE:'' '''This is not confirmed'''
The larger shields seem to block more often, but it also seems that while using a Large iron shield, I attack less then if I was just using a single one-handed weapon. So it may be that the larger the shield the more it blocks, but it also inhibits your attacks more.
* This would stand to make sense as a larger shield, especially metal, is heavier and will factor a combatants agility and movement.
Updated information. Removed theory because it's untrue.
