The Best Defense is a unique shield from the Trespasser DLC for Dragon Age: Inquisition.

Acquisition

Trespasser

• Random trials reward before reaching level 13.
• Available at the Shattered Library Merchant for 85430

Notes

• Enhanced Shield Wall deals 300% weapon damage in a 4m radius centered around the wielder.

Bugs

• The blue pulsar effect from the shield will sometimes overlap party member profile pics when checking the inventory or using the character record menu; this can potentially occur to any party member, not just the character equipping the shield.
• If the shield is unequipped, it is possible that the blue pulsar effect and the repetitive sound effect generated from the shield can persist on the character. Destroying or selling the shield, and then saving and immediately reloading the game will remove the unwanted effects.
