Upgraded Shields:

Players should always opt for upgrading their shields. In order to gain points of guard-boost, layers need to strengthen their shields. Guard Boost is a measure of stamina level when a player blocks an attack. When stats touch 100, the stamina expenditure goes zero. Players who are seeking to touch 100 guard points, they can choose Brass shield. Players just need to spend 16 strengths to unlock it and along with that, they get a base guard boost of 56. To increase the base guard boost, players need to upgrade the brass shield. This will increase its boost from 56 to 65.

How to Execute the Whole Process:

For executing the whole process, players need to go to the South Raya Lucaria Gate Site of Grace which is in the southeast side of the Academy of Raya Lucaria in the game. There are many soldiers in those areas from which players can obtain it as few of them can get dropped. Having that shield can help the player in beating Bloodhound Knight Darriwal in Limgrave’s Forlon Hound Evergaol to get Ash of War: Barricade Shield. After which they can attach the skill to any Site of Grace.
