'''Shield Charge''' is a [[channelling]] [[attack]] [[skill]] for [[armoured shield]]s that makes the user charge in the target direction. Upon hitting an enemy or terrain the charge stops, dealing [[physical]] damage around the user. During the charge, the character is considered to have their [[Raise Shield|shield raised]].


==Skill functions and interactions==
==Skill functions and interactions==
While your Shield is raised during the charge, [[Blocking]] [[Hits]] fills your Stagger bar based on the damage the [[Hit]] would have dealt. If the bar fills completely, you are [[Stunned]] and cannot take actions for a short time.
User counts as using Active Block from [[Raise Shield]] while channelling.


The attack damage % used by Shield Charge is derived explicitly from the base off hand physical damage inherent to the gem itself. No amount of damage on a weapon in the main hand will contribute to Shield Charge damage.
Base damage from this skill scales off of the equipped shield's [[Armour]] rating. Conditional modifiers that increase the Armour provided by the shield do not contribute towards the skill's damage. Passive skills with the mod {{c|mod|X% increased Defences from Equipped Shield}} does not affect the skill's damage.


Focusing on the [[Armour]] value of your [[shield]] is one of the methods for scaling Shield Charge damage.
Your weapon's local modifiers will not scale the damage of this skill. Damage is classified as off-hand damage regardless of the type of weapon you have equipped in your main hand or if you're [[unarmed]].


Passive tree nodes that contain the text {{c|mod|X% increased Defences from Equipped Shield}} such as [[Towering Shield]], [[Core of the Guardian]], [[Spiked Shield]], and [[Flashy Deflection]] do not impact Shield Charge damage. Instead, they modify the final Armour value added to the character rather than the implicit Armour value of the shield itself.
Channelling Shield Charge counts as having your shield lowered, allowing your Heavy Stun bar to deplete despite accruing stun while using the skill.{{Bug}}{{confirm}}

Shield Charge is a channelling attack skill for armoured shields that makes the user charge in the target direction. Upon hitting an enemy or terrain the charge stops, dealing physical damage around the user. During the charge, the character is considered to have their shield raised.

Skill functions and interactions

User counts as using Active Block from Raise Shield while channelling.

Base damage from this skill scales off of the equipped shield's Armour rating. Conditional modifiers that increase the Armour provided by the shield do not contribute towards the skill's damage. Passive skills with the mod X% increased Defences from Equipped Shield does not affect the skill's damage.

Your weapon's local modifiers will not scale the damage of this skill. Damage is classified as off-hand damage regardless of the type of weapon you have equipped in your main hand or if you're unarmed.

Channelling Shield Charge counts as having your shield lowered, allowing your Heavy Stun bar to deplete despite accruing stun while using the skill.[Likely due to a bug][confirmation needed]
