Your Shield Meter will regenerate automatically when outside of Defensive Stance, as well as when you strike enemies.

When you toggle Defensive Stance on, you will become much slower.
However, all incoming damage will reduce your Shield Meter instead of your health.
Plus, you gain Push Immunity, enabling you to ignore most interrupts.

Toggle Defensive Stance on to use charge-jot down attacks and you will clean out leveling zones with ease.
Skills also earn Tripods at levels 4, 7, and 10.
