Aegis Shield

Aegis Shield - This buff is consumed to negate the next source of damage dealt to the target.

Type: buff - Category: Shield

The shielded character receives no damage from the next source of damage dealt to it. This includes one application of any damage over time effects like Burn or Poison. Any attacks that would've inflicted a status debuff like Daze and Exhaustion will still apply.

The nice benefit of a shield is that it doesn't run out as long as the hero have not been hit. This could be managed by having a tank that Taunts and draws attacks away from the rest of the party, while casting a shield on the remaining members of the party.

When dealing with enemies with a shield, quickly use a basic attack or attacks that deal multiple strikes to remove it.

Heroes like Yasmin Bloom and Augustus the Paladin have the ability to add a shield to the party. Zen can put an aegis on himself with his basic attack Pop and Cover.}
