— In-game description

Blood Shield is an effect applied to Matthias Gabrel. Lasts 24 hours.

Notes[edit]

  • Reduces incoming strike and condition damage by 90% per stack. Stacks additively with Vulnerability.png Vulnerability. With only one stack remaining, some damage can be dealt to Matthias Gabrel.
  • With one stack of Blood Shield and Vulnerability.png25 Vulnerability, the total damage reduction is only 65%.
  • Life stealing does not work against Matthias Gabrel when Blood Shield is active (no damage and no healing occurs).
