Shields were first introduced with patch R45. Shields allow players to protect themselves from attacks in PVP Events for a period of time (3 hours, 8 hours, or 1 day). While a shield is active, you cannot lose event points; any loss your team suffers will be blocked. However, should your team win, you will still receive points. Attacking an opponent while a shield is in use will break your shield.
After buying a shield there is a 8 hour cooldown before it is possible to purchase shield of the same type again.
