Shield ThrowMastery.Player.Combat.ShieldTechniques
The files call this Shield Techniques; the game calls it Shield Throw, which is the name used here. Corroborated
Combat grid, column 1 of 5, row 5 of 5. 5 points. A corner skill, so it needs no neighbour and is available from the start.
Investment levels
2 of the 5 levels add a number the files give exactly; the other 3 unlock a move or a behaviour instead. Datamined
| Level | What the game says | Where that comes from |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | L1+Circle to perform an Arcing Shield Throw that hits all enemies along its trajectory | This level turns something on rather than adding a number. How strong that something is, is UNKNOWN: it is set somewhere the files do not join back to this level. |
| 2 | +10% Shield damage | The files give this level its own exact value. |
| 3 | PressL1right as your Shield Throw or Arcing Shield Throw returns to release an Explosive Wave | This level turns something on rather than adding a number. How strong that something is, is UNKNOWN: it is set somewhere the files do not join back to this level. |
| 4 | +5% Shield charge speed | The files give this level its own exact value. |
| 5 | PressL1right as yourL1+R2Shield Throw hits an enemy to perform a Spectral Blow and dash to the enemy | This level turns something on rather than adding a number. How strong that something is, is UNKNOWN: it is set somewhere the files do not join back to this level. |
