[edit] Notes
- If struck by a melee attack skill that cannot be blocked while Shield Bash is active, the attacker is still knocked down and the skill still suffers the increased recharge.
- Can be used while knocked down.
- This skill is still useful with 0 rank in Strength as the attribute rank only affects its duration and not its effect on foes.
- Especially effective against Assassins due to their unique attack skill system.
[edit] Trivia
- The skill icon appears similar to the Shield of Deflection icon.
