OrbonkSkeleton Shieldbearer
A variant of the Skeleton.
Walks behind a raised shield (−75% damage); lowers it only to bash.
How to deal with it
The Skeleton Shieldbearer walks behind a raised shield, and while it is up the shield cuts damage by 75%. Most of your weapons will do little against its front.
It lowers the shield only to bash, and that is when it is vulnerable. Back away from the bash, then hit it once it commits.
Weapons that reach around, pass through or hit from behind are best. Do not waste effort on hits while the shield is up. It has a fair amount of health, so patience pays off more than raw damage. You meet it in the Cursed Forest.
