Shields are defensive equipment items that can be equipped in the Left Hand slot in Remixed Pixel Dungeon.

Shields were introduced in the game as part of the expanded equipment system that allows for more strategic customization, including dual wielding and off-hand shields. They provide defensive benefits and can be used in combination with weapons in the main hand.

• Slot: Left Hand equipment slot
• Function: Provides defensive bonuses and blocking capabilities
• Strategy: Offers protection at the cost of some offensive capability
• Compatibility: Can be used with one-handed weapons in the main hand

• Chaos Shield - Special shield created by fusing a Chaos Crystal
• Various other shields available through modding system
• Different shields provide different defensive properties and special effects

Using shields changes the combat approach significantly:

• Defense: Higher damage reduction and blocking capabilities
• Offense: Reduced attack potential compared to dual-wielding
• Versatility: Can use main hand for weapons while maintaining defense
• Tactics: Best for defensive playstyles or when facing numerous dangerous enemies

Remixed Dungeon's modding system supports custom shields with various special properties and effects, allowing for extensive equipment customization.
