First of all, you must decide if it's worth it to block over rolling. The Sinner's attacks are quite easy to avoid, even with low agility.

Second, the Red Eye Ring does in no way guarantee that you take aggro, it only makes it more likely. As such, Lucatiel may still get killed while fighting.

You also need to conserve your stamina. You can't just hold the shield up all the time, or else your guard will be broken in seconds. Sometimes, even running is better than blocking.

The final crucial part is positioning. You don't want Lucatiel to get hit while you've got aggro. And you definitely don't want to get stuck in a corner, or anywhere else along the walls really.

So there's a lot more to it than just sitting in a corner with a greatshield.
