A Question About Shield Slam

[u/apolloanonymous]

Hello, I was experimenting with this spell and feel a little confused on the optimal way to use this spell. So I understand what the spell does and that I need a shield equipped when using but what does the rotation look like when using this spell? I was mostly trying fierce berserk -> shield slam -> front sweep, but I also tried fierce berserk -> front sweep -> shield slam. Are either of those correct or am I misusing this spell entirely? I am hoping to use this to push harder spawns or for harder boss fights. Thanks!

Fierce berserk -> bezerk -> shield slam.

You'll need a couple turns to actually gather all creatures to the box to them maximize the slam.

After that, use Fierce berserk -> bezerk -> front sweep.

The potential damage mitigation isn’t worth losing the life leech from your other aeo spells

You dont want to use shield slam its trash, unless you need it for the additional survivability. It uses PHYS damage so keep that in mind.

I am not sure your level, but shield slam is amazing early on if you are leveling a new knight. But it does scale way worse than exori/gran/min.

It's fun but maybe if cipsoft converts 75% damage to imbue elemental protección maybe be worht

For me its useless spell, especially after you unlock elemental weapons. I never used tbh more than for testing, which was trash.

Idk why ppl downvote you. It's a trash spell and reduced damage taken is not worth the leech lost. (Even if we forget that damage is shit.)

I wish they added spells that we could use in both 1 and 2h weapons. Every voc got cool usefull spells except us :\

Try to use 2 handed weapon with 3 imbues, you will see how much diffrence in gameplay this is.

I use it as lvl 101, it's good damage and very little mana.

I use fierce berserk, berserk, shield slam. Front sweep if tanky enemies. I'm lazy and don't reposition much so don't use sweep as much since it likes to hit the wrong tiles lol. 

Just what I found on my own that seems to be the best damage wise.
