Despite it saying that bucklers cannot be used, the game only checks if a shield is ineligible by seeing if their name contains the word "buckler". Thus, {{favilink|stopsvalinn}} can be used for Shield Wall despite being worn on the arm as a buckler.
{{name}} is a skill that increases the chance of blocking melee attacks to 100% for three turns. It can be used only with hand-held shields, not arm-worn bucklers.
