Shield Warden

Shield Warden

Prerequisite: Strength 13 or higher

You've honed your skills in using a shield not just for defense but as a tool to control the battlefield. You gain the following benefits:

  • When you take the Dodge action, you can extend the benefits to a creature within 5 feet of you. The chosen creature gains the benefits of the Dodge action until the start of your next turn.
  • When a creature hits you with a melee attack, you can use your reaction to attempt to shove them. Make a Strength (Athletics) check contested by the target's Strength (Athletics) or Dexterity (Acrobatics) check. If you win the contest, you either knock the target prone or push it 5 feet away from you.
  • When you take the Attack action and make a melee attack, you can use a bonus action to add your shield's AC bonus to the damage of your next successful melee attack before the end of your next turn.
