Elysian Guard

Elysian Guard is a buff applied to the player when they press the key while either the Elysian Aegis or Asgardian Aegis is equipped. It reduces movement speed by 15%, acceleration by 50% and increases enemy aggro up to 1,100, but increases all damage by 15%, all critical strike chance by 10%, and grants 20 defense.

As the shield provides an extremely fast shield dash, the speed penalties of activating Elysian Guard are usually negligible in combat.
