Dueling Shield is a Thrusting Shield in Elden Ring. It is a brand new Thrusting Shield in the Shadow of the Erdtree DLC. The Dueling Shield scales primarily with Strength and Dexterity and is a good Weapon for __goodfor__. 

 

A "thrusting shield," or combined weapon and shield. Enables the wielder to attack and guard simultaneously. An armament once used in ritual combat performed to honor the Erdtree—a custom that had somehow remained within the realm of shadow.

      if you're having trouble fighting against people using this in pvp, use kick and a hammer talisman if you need and you're good. it takes barely any stamina and health damage

      • Anonymous

        if you're having trouble fighting people in pvp with this, use kick on them and riposte. doesn't make sense that this thing should get so much invulnerability and damage. i think the damage and playstyle can stay the same sure, but why can it sustain so much stamina and health damage?

        • Anonymous

          is there any reason to use this over the carian shield if you are okay with the minimal extra requirements? it seems the carian shield is way better in a lot of ways for barely any more investment

          • Anonymous

            No buffs or status and some guys slash attack with this did half my 60 vigor. Is it supposed to do more damage than a collosal while offering complete invincibility?

            • Anonymous

              "From the middle area" is terribly ambiguous terminology when talking about that huge-ass building.
              I think it's meant to be from the First Floor Grace, why not just use the name of the Grace you're supposed to start to reach it?

                Been using an offensive shield build with this and the Smithscript shield and it’s been so fun. The L1 + R1 combo works really well if you have good stamina.

                • Anonymous

                  Really cool but needs some changes. It’s doing 4-500 thrust dmg in pvp + counter hits along with invulnerability and momentum… should be doing identical damage to spears instead, which is about 220 dmg to a strength build. It would stilll be over powered but obnoxious DLC weapons are a marketing ploy right?

                  • Anonymous

                    Absolutly obliterated the Lord of Frenzy with this thing. This weapon is no joke. Charge Attacks are amazing, the amount of Ashes of War it can have are astonishing, can be buffed, has counter damage. This is by far the best new weapon catagory in the game and I hope that Fromsoftware moving forward keeps including this weapon

                    • Anonymous

                      if you're struggling against the final boss, this **** is insane with a weapon grease buff and stamina talismans, you take less stamina damage by just spamming L1 + R1 attacks and you can stack bleed or frost whilst doing it. best enjoyed with a mimic tear of course

                      • Anonymous

                        Finally, my shield build can see an upgrade.

                        Though I would have liked the doors to return. They were silly.

                          Combining this with the deflecting tear and it feels a lot like Sekiro (you can use katanas, but the poor guard boost means you'll get staggered). The guard counter does insane stagger damage, and you can put cragblade on it and drink the poise damage tear for some hilarious poise break memes.

                          Only thing is, the Carian one seems straight up better for almost all builds if you can afford the slight extra weight and int levels, but maybe I'm missing something.

                            Honestly an insane weapon. Has an amazing moveset (crouch pokes are crazy good), has guard frames on attacks, fantastic range and has a wide range of ashes you can toss on it. I've been using this on an arcane build w/ occult infusion and Poisonous Mist, and the swing on mist has deceptively long range. The only downside is that if you're using this weapon you really want to pump up your stamina, since you can get caught mid-swing and be guard broken. You'll want to also use the Greatshield Talisman to minimize the stamina damage you take. Also the guard counter isn't anything particularly special. That said, easily a favorite of the DLC.

                              Better guide to finding it:
                              From the "Storehouse, First floor grace" run North to the stairs past all the Shadow wizards and Vulgar Militiamen
                              Ascend to the 2nd floor and head to the east side
                              You will come to a corridor balcony with 2 Vulgar Militiamen.
                              The shield is on a corpse against the wall to your left(east on the compass) over the balcony fence and across a narrow walkway

                                How to be hellishly annoying in the arena with this beautiful thing:

                                Put Barricade Shield AoW on it, but leave it as standard infusion. Equip the following talismans for maximum hilarity: Spear Talisman, Greatshield Talisman, Two-Handed Sword Talisman, and finally Two-Headed Turtle Talisman.

                                These ingredients all come together to cook up a setup so perplexing for your opponent that they'll have no idea what to do against it. Only thing that really beats it is the reverse grip weapon with Blind Spot/Swift Slash AoW but those are busted af currently anyways. Oh, and maybe a greatshield user but you'll both just end up standing there staring at each other with nothing happening. No matter what your opponent does, they can't trade with you nor attack your shield at all without fear of being hit by that juicy counter-hit damage.

                                  Servant:Master why did you create this I don't understand.
                                  Creator:Because it's a shield and a weapon it's the best of both worlds, god I'm a genius muhahahaha.

                                  Just got this thing and I absolutely love it I honestly look forward to how viable it is in duels though considering it's name pvp is looking fun.

                                    I didnt expect one of my favorite weapons in the DLC to be the goofy shield. Its genuinely so much fun lol

                                      Anyone think this might be bugged? Carian is pretty much a straight upgrade.

                                      Even in physical damage resist, which you would think Carian would be worse at.

                                        The heavy attack windup animation has guard frames. You can charge it to perform a pseudo guard counter that would normally be faster than guard + guard counter.

                                          Uses both shield and weapon ashes of war.

                                          To the point that your L2 strike combo gets replaced by shield ash of war.

                                          But not weapon ash of war requiring 2 hand attack.

                                            After playing with it... Honestly, pretty good. It blocks enemy attacks while you're in your attack wind-ups, and does piercing damage, so it's practically tailor-made for the counter hit damage bonus. Throw on your spear talisman and it'll do pretty good damage. Throw on the Greatshield Talisman and stack stamina and you can really wail on enemies. Really changes a boss fight when you know you can just power through an attack and only take chip damage while taking a nice chunk outta them. Not that great for counter hits (as in, the attack after blocking) because of the damage & relatively low guard boost.
                                            Plus, you can stick thrusting ashes on it (I like Blood Tax, but Giant Hunt is a gimme). It's not OP, but it's definitely not bad. Probably gonna be a nightmare in PvP.

                                              Much easier to understand location: from the storehouse, first floor site of grace, proceed to a bridge on the third floor that leads to a group of vulgar milita. Then face southeast and you should see the shield over the railing.

                                                Attack-shield with stats compensating being able to attack and block: "fun detected!! cool thing trash as usual!!!" Attack-shield with stats of a weapon and a shield: "biggest cancer ever!! fromsoft no idea balance as usual!!!!"

                                                  Was so hyped for this weapon and its a C scaling Dex weapon at +25 with worst blocking than un upgraded colossal weapons and worst blocking than half medium shields.

                                                    Physical negation is 80, guard boost only about 60. I wouldn’t expect it to have 100 negation but in the very least it should have a a more than slightly better guard boost than the brass shield lol
