Shields (Arena)

Shields are handheld pieces of armor used to block incoming blows during melee combat. They require one free hand to use. There are four basic types of shields:


 * Bucklers: small shields that protect the hands and left shoulder.
 * Round Shields: circular shields that protect hands, left shoulder, and waist.
 * Kite Shields: larger shields that protect hands, left shoulder, waist, and upper legs.
 * Tower Shields: tall shields that protect hands, head, and the entire left side.
