Skill Overview
In the Path of Exile 3.28 Mirage league, Shield of Light is a new Strength/Intelligence Skill Gem that functions as a Retaliation skill.
Activation: You can use this skill to retaliate immediately after you have successfully blocked a hit with your shield.
Effect: Your character sweeps their shield, releasing a wave of light in a cone directly in front of you.
Ally Synergy: When the primary wave strikes a target, additional waves of light emanate from your nearby allies (including party members, minions, totems, and mirages) within a certain radius, traveling toward that same target.
Build Guides 3.28
Gladiator: The Gladiator Ascendancy is a popular choice for this skill due to its natural affinity for Max Block and Retaliation skills.
Guardian: Players are also experimenting with Guardian to leverage the skill's synergy with minions, as the extra waves from allies significantly increase its coverage and damage potential.
Defense Layers: Because it requires blocking to trigger, builds typically pair it with high-block uniques like Aegis Aurora or Emperor's Vigilance combined with the Versatile Combatant Keystone.
