A holy warrior can focus divine energy through his or her blessed shield, turning it into a kind of spiritual beacon. The pure, powerful light that shines forth will burn all those who see it, friend or foe, who have evil lurking within. If the shield is not just blessed, but enchanted as well, the light it shines can distract or even blind the most evil of foes. Knowledge of the skill holy smite is required for the use of this skill.
