Strategy & Tips

Holy Shield provides 5 Block and 2 Barrier for 1 cost, combining temporary and permanent defense. Block scales at 1.0x. Level 3 adds +2 Block, and level 5 adds 1 Regeneration for healing over time.

The Barrier accumulates across turns, building permanent damage absorption. Pair with other Holy cards for synergy healing. Frost Heart preserves 50% of Block between turns.

Fortify from Frost Empress adds +3 to the Block. Crystal of Duality adds +3 damage to the Block effect. In Barrier-stacking builds with Celestial Avatar and Divine Light, the cumulative Barrier becomes a significant shield.

The level 5 Regeneration adds sustain on top of defense. She is more defensively focused than Holy Knight but lacks any offensive output. Best in Holy control builds that prioritize long-term survival over dealing damage.
