# Dragonblight Shield

The dragonblight shield is a power level 4 masterwork shield that can be crafted at a blacksmith's bench after obtaining a noxious draconic visage from the Dragon Slayer reward pack by completing Dragon Slayer or from turning in Velgar's head to the Wise Old Man afterwards. One of the required materials is an anti-dragon shield and one is included in the reward pack. It can be ascended at the mystic forge using ascension cores. Its special effect causes a cloud of poison to appear after a parry that only affects enemies. The damage per tick is based on the power level of the shield, dealing 4 damage per tick at power level 4, 5 at power level 5, and 6 at power level 6 and 7. This damage ticks 15 times, once per second, and the effect has an internal cooldown of 20 seconds. This damage does not interrupt a stagger caused by a parry. Despite not being listed, this shield also has Dragon Breath Resistance, the special effect of the anti-dragon shield, which provides the ability to block dragon fire. Venomous Trapper (the upgrade for Snare) is available at any time—once unlocked—for a few runes, and can also hold enemies in place, with only a 60 second cooldown. It applies the highest 6 damage per tick poison damage that the power level 6 and 7 shield do, and they do not stack. Neither stack with poisoned arrows or with weapon poison applied to a melee weapon, so this shield is in competition with a variety of other, more readily available sources of poison. It is, however, free, with the shorter cooldown when compared to Snare, and most notably does not interfere with staggers caused by parries, allowing the player to either riposte that target, deal with other targets, or make space.
