The Spiked Palisade Shield is a Greatshield in Elden Ring. It is a mid-game find in Caelid.

The Spiked Palisade Shield is a large wooden greatshield covered in spikes, designed for shield bashes that riddle the enemy with holes and earned it the nickname of pard shield. It lies on a corpse at the feet of a Guardian Golem in the chasm northwest of Deep Siofra Well in Caelid. At 11.5 weight it is light for its class, though its damage negation is lower than heavier greatshields, with a guard boost of 58 and only 20 Strength required. It comes with Shield Bash and accepts other Ashes of War, and Shield Crash is noted to work well on it. It suits a character who wants a light greatshield that can also hit back.

Skill

Shield Bash costs no FP. The wielder braces behind the shield and rams forward with full body weight while keeping guard up. Weaker enemies are shoved back and can be staggered, and because the guard holds through the motion, the bash can be thrown out against incoming attacks. It is the weapon's default Ash of War, so another can take its place.

"Brace behind shield before using bodyweight to ram foes while maintaining guarding stance. Weaker enemies will be shoved backwards, and can even be staggered."

Guarding

With a guard boost of 58, a blocked hit that would cost 100 stamina only costs 42. It lets 7% of physical damage through, and against the elements it holds up best to magic, at 50%, and worst to fire, at 43%. A block that drains the last of the stamina bar breaks the guard, leaving an opening for a critical.

Build

Carried as a light off-hand greatshield that blocks and then bashes, letting a Strength build stay mobile while still guarding.

Stats	Strength 20 to wield it, then toward 60 and 80 for the main weapon, Vigor about 50, Endurance about 30, Mind about 25
Affinity	Heavy suits its Strength scaling; Standard keeps the default guard values.
Ash of War	Shield Bash, its default skill, or Shield Crash, which is noted to perform well on this shield; Barricade Shield for a defensive guard counter style.
Talismans	Greatshield Talisman, Dragoncrest Greatshield Talisman, Bull-Goat's Talisman

Notes

"A large wooden shield covered with spikes. Though relatively light, it lacks in damage negation. Designed to perform shield bashes, these attacks riddle the enemy with holes, earning it the nickname of 'pard shield.'"
