Bucklers are a type of armor in Kingdoms of Amalur: Re-Reckoning. Bucklers are protective gear that can be worn by finesse-based characters. Bucklers use the shield armor slot.
Parrying
Bucklers can be used actively to reduce or completely block an incoming attack with a Parry. To perform a parry, The Fateless One must use the Kite Shield at the exact time the enemy is unleashing an attack. This will completely disrupt the attack and stagger the enemy, allowing for a counter attack. This will also deal physical damage, which is based on the armor of the shield used.
Parrying only works against humanoid enemies.
Crafting Bucklers
Bucklers can be crafted at any Blacksmithing Forge by using a Wooden Guard and a Grip. Trims and Rivets are optional Components that can grant even more bonuses to the crafted item.
