Notes from author
Swap between different shields for different opponents
Silver Knight Shield for non-elemental users, purely R1/R2 attacks
Black Knight Shield for pyromancers
Crest Shield for magic damage buff users
Crystal Shield for hybrid damage users (has high elemental defenses, as well as 100% block)
Magic Warrior's Round Shield +10 for PURE casters (basically people that just use sorceries/non lightning miracles, is also good against some buff users, albeit having low stability)
And last but not least, the Eagle Shield against extremely heavy weapons that hit harder than trucks and deplete stamina like motherfuckers.
