Tavern Guard Shield
A sturdy shield to protect against both blades and thrown tankards
Shield Epic Effect: Shieldsmash DLC: Battle Pass: Age of War - Chapter 3 ID: 8746
This shield is designed for attack as much as defence. A well-placed strike with the shield can stagger an enemy and leave them open to attacks from a weapon in the main hand.
About Tavern Guard Shield
Tavern Guard Shield is an Epic Shield in Conan Exiles. It deals 36 light damage, 36 heavy damage, and 12.15% armor penetration. It is a Tier 4 item.
Tavern Guard Shield is a craftable weapon — it is produced at a crafting station rather than dropped by enemies. It is part of the "Battle Pass: Age of War - Chapter 3" DLC, so players without that content cannot obtain it. Tier 4 places it in the upper band of the game's weapon progression.
Its base damage of 36 ranks #19 of 87 Shield entries tracked here. It has a modest 12.15% armor penetration, 10 poise damage that helps interrupt enemies, and 2500 durability before it needs repair. At 2 weight it is light to carry.
Carried off-hand to block and shield-bash; pair it with a one-handed weapon for a defensive bruiser build.
Verdict: Overall Tavern Guard Shield is a strong pick among Shield weapons in Conan Exiles, and being craftable makes it easy to replace if it breaks.
