Starlight Wardens Wiki
Stalwart
Hold a melee weapon and a Stalwart shield, and while you are above half health no single hit takes more than 40% of your maximum health.
What it does
Stalwart is a rule on certain shields. It stops one huge blow from taking you from healthy to dead. It only works while you are above half health, so it is not a way to ignore damage. Below half, every hit counts in full. Grit, if you have it, is spent before Stalwart looks at the blow.
Which shields have it
Every shield below. It needs a melee weapon in the other hand; with a wand, which also takes a shield, it does nothing.
