Stone Shield

Stone Shield can be learned by all Dragons with the Earth Element. It is an active defensive skill that applies a positive status effect by absorbing incoming direct or indirect damage for two turns.

The damage absorption caused by Stone Shield is not affected by Dark Clouds, Shade of Oneself or Divine Wisdom.

This skill is not stackable, therefore if two or more Dragons cast this same skill on a target, that target will have its defense raised to the strongest version.
This also applies to the Metal En Garde! defense skill.
