Shield Effect: Shieldsmash DLC: Battle Pass: Age of War - Chapter 1 ID: 988
Flashes of red flit across the snowy wastes, as the savage Vanir lunge for their prey, painting the frigid terrain in a complimentary shade of crimson. Aesir blood shall quench the thirsty earth they encroach upon!
About Vanir Chieftain Shield
Vanir Chieftain Shield is a Shield in Conan Exiles. It deals 13 light damage, 13 heavy damage, and 12.15% armor penetration. It is a Tier 1 item.
Vanir Chieftain 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 1" DLC, so players without that content cannot obtain it. Tier 1 places it in the lower band of the game's weapon progression.
Its base damage of 13 ranks #60 of 87 Shield entries tracked here. It has a modest 12.15% armor penetration, 10 poise damage that helps interrupt enemies, and 1250 durability before it needs repair. At 2.31 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 Vanir Chieftain Shield is a middle-of-the-pack option among Shield weapons in Conan Exiles, and being craftable makes it easy to replace if it breaks.
