Old Knight Greatshield

In-Game Description

An undated ancient greatshield.

Wielded by a warrior from a time so ancient
that there exists no record of his endeavors.
Has extremely low durabiltiy.

Sometimes, just as a thing falls to pieces,
it unleashes its last flash of great power…

Availability

Harvest Valley treasure. From The Mines bonfire go to the right in to the open area. Go left and follow the passage that goes slightly upwards. Follow that path until you stand in front of a wall made out of planks. Behind there is an enemy that will smash the wall if you attack it. Behind that enemy there is a similar wall. Bait the enemy into attacking you to smash that wall as well. There you find the item.

Stats Needed:	Determines how high various Stats must be in order to wield the shield effectively. The requirement stats for shields are A / B / C / D: A is the Strength required B is the Dexterity required C is the Intelligence required D is the Faith required While it is possible to use a shield with lower-than-required Strength, your character will suffer a severe penalty to damage reduction.
