Availability[]
Dropped by a Corpse Grub in a cell found in the Irithyll Dungeon. After the first Jailer, drop down one floor and open the door to the creature.
Effect[]
Greatly reinforces shield in the left hand, increasing damage absorption in all categories to 100% regardless of prior resistances, while increasing stability by 50%. Skills that inflict damage through raised shields such as Blind Spot and Shield Splitter will also be completely blocked. Effects last for 30 seconds, and duration can be increased by equipping a Lingering Dragoncrest Ring.
