Guardian Shell

The Guardian Shell is a trinket dropped by the Swamp Guardian. Unlike ordinary shields, it is not held up to block incoming damage. Instead, it activates a self-buff that lasts for 5 seconds and then goes on a 30 second cooldown.

Because the buff does not require you to keep the item raised, you can move and act freely during its duration. This makes the Guardian Shell function more like a temporary defensive tool than a traditional shield, giving you a brief window of protection without locking you in place.
