Template:Gem Infobox

In the hands of a talented combatant, even a shield becomes a deadly weapon. With Shield Charge, a warrior dashes forward at a single enemy, slamming them senseless. The violence of the charge will push nearby foes out of its path, and inflict great damage on target. An opponent unlucky enough to be struck by the full brunt of a Shield Charge will be knocked back and stunned for a time.

The player charges at an enemy and bashes it with his shield. The target is damaged, knocked back, and stunned. Enemies in the way are pushed to the side. Damage and stun duration are proportional to the distance charged. As the skill levels up, damage increases. Higher quality Shield Charge gems deal increased damage. This skill requires a shield, but does not require a melee weapon. The damage dealt on strike is based on the main hand weapon and is not affected by the shield in any way. Note that ingame average damage tooltip for Shield Charge does not factor in the bonus gained from charge distance. Faster Attacks modifier increases the running speed during the charge, but does not affect the end animation in any way, which occurs after the strike and has a fixed duration.
