The Silverblack Shield is a medium shield in Dark Souls II.

In-Game Description

A silver-black shield imbued with the power of dark.
The equipment of the wardens of the Undead Crypt are soaked in its darkness, and permeated by its power. The grave wardens are said to know the name of every guest who rests in the crypt, no matter how long they have been with them.

Availability[]

Can be dropped by Grave Wardens in Earthen Peak and Undead Crypt.

Characteristics[]

Strong elemental defenses, especially against sources of dark damage, but lower resistances to the various negative status effects and stability, and a rather cumbersome weight should players wish to remain more mobile.

It can be used as a strike weapon under dire circumstances given the split damage it deals, as it scales fairly with Strength and dark for a shield.

Notes[]

  • Infusing this shield with a Darknight Stone (dark infusion) will only increase the resistance by a very minute amount, making it impossible for this shield to achieve a 100% resistance to the Dark.
