Shield Bash
A Crimson Moon Weapon Art, carried by 8 weapons.
Shield Bash is a Weapon Art in Crimson Moon: Blast forward with your shield and deal Crushing damage. It is bound to 8 weapons, so taking this Art means taking one of them — a Weapon Art cannot be moved onto a weapon that does not already carry it.

What it does
Blast forward with your shield and deal Crushing damage.
That is the game’s own effect text. No damage figures, scaling or cooldowns have been published for Weapon Arts, so this page does not quote any — an invented number is worse than a missing one.
