Version history /10
VersionChanges
3.28.0
  • Fixed a bug where Spectral Shield Throw and Spectral Shield Throw of Shattering could pierce, even though they stated that they could not.
    • 3.25.0
  • Spectral Shield Throw: Now has 56 to 84 Base Off Hand Physical Damage at gem level 1 (previously 47 to 70), scaling up to 243 to 364 at gem level 20 (previously 203 to 304). It also now has 3 to 5 Added Physical Damage per 15 Armour or Evasion Rating on Shield at gem level 1 (previously 3 to 4), with values of 5 to 9 at gem level 20 (previously 5 to 7).
  • Spectral Shield Throw of Shattering: Now has a Mana cost of 7 at gem level 1 (previously 8), scaling up to 10 at gem level 20 (previously 12). It now has 69 to 103 Base Off Hand Cold Damage at gem level 1 (previously 57 to 86), scaling up to 297 to 446 at gem level 20 (previously 248 to 372). Also now has 4 to 7 Added Cold Damage per 15 Evasion Rating on Shield (previously 4 to 5), with values of 7 to 12 at gem level 20 (previously 7 to 9).
    • 3.23.0
    Spectral Shield Throw:
    3.16.0
  • Spectral Shield Throw now has a base Attack Time of 0.65 seconds at all gem levels (previously 0.7-0.6 seconds). Now has 3 to 4 Added Physical Damage per 15 Armour or Evasion Rating on Shield at gem level 1 (previously 4 to 5), up to 5 to 7 at gem level 20 (previously 6 to 8). Now deals 47 to 70 Base Off Hand Physical Damage at gem level 1 (previously 58 to 86), up to 203 to 304 at gem level 20 (previously 399 to 599).
  • The Merciless Labyrinth Enchantment for Spectral Shield Throw now grants “Spectral Shield Throw Fires 2 additional projectiles” (previously 3). Existing items with this Enchantment are unaffected.
  • The Eternal Labyrinth Enchantment for Spectral Shield Throw now grants “Spectral Shield Throw Fires 3 additional projectiles” (previously 5). Existing items with this Enchantment are unaffected.
    • 3.15.0

    Spectral Shield Throw:
    • Spectral Shield Throw’s default behaviour has been reworked to be more similar to the Divide and Conquer threshold jewel (which has also been reworked).
  • The Divide and Conquer unique jewel has been renamed Seething Fury, and has been reworked. It no longer changes the behaviour of Spectral Shield Throw specifically. Instead it now grants +0.2% to Off Hand Critical Strike Chance per 10 Maximum Energy Shield on Shield, +4% to Off Hand Critical Strike Multiplier per 10 Maximum Energy Shield on Shield, as well as still granting (10-15)% increased Attack Damage while holding a Shield. These modifier changes affect all versions of this item, though you will need to use a Divine Orb to obtain the new values.
  • Spectral Shield Throw is no longer offered to the Marauder or Duelist for completing The Siren’s Cadence, and can no longer be purchased from Nessa by the Templar, Ranger, Shadow, or Scion.
  • Spectral Shield Throw is now offered to the Duelist for completing Sever the Right Hand, and can be purchased from Clarissa by the Marauder, Templar, Ranger, and Scion.
  • Fixed a bug where the Stygian Spectral Shield Throw Microtransaction had a slower projectile speed than the base visual effect. Also fixed a case where the base visual effect had a slower projectile speed for the Templar.

    Spectral Shield Throw
    3.2.0
  • Added a new Dexterity/Strength Skill Gem - Spectral Shield Throw: Throws a spectral copy of your shield as a projectile which cannot pierce, and deals off-hand damage augmented by the defences of the shield. When it collides with something it will shatter, launching a number of smaller shards as projectiles in all directions. Modifiers that cause additional projectiles to be fired will add more shards, not more copies of the shield.
  • Doryani's Fist now clarifies that the added lightning damage specifically applies to Unarmed attacks (any attack with a hand that is not holding an item.) This means it will not apply to Spectral Shield Throw, as that skill uses a hand that has to be holding a shield.

    Spectral Shield Throw

    Spectral Shield Throw is an attack skill. The user tosses their shield at an enemy. On impact, it deals physical damage to the enemy and releases shards that deals damage to nearby enemies. Unlike most attack skills, Spectral Shield Throw uses your shield's stats to calculate damage.

    Skill functions and interactions

    • Projectile Modifiers: The initial projectile from Spectral Shield Throw can be modified to chain and fork, but not to have additional projectiles or pierce. Support gems that add these effects will have their appropriate damage modifiers applied to all part of Spectral Shield Throw's damage.

    • Fork: Fork splits the initial shield throw into two projectiles, which can then each individually chain or hit. Secondary projectiles (Shards) pierce by default and therefor are unmodifiable in functionality.

    • Shards: The shield will only explode into shards after it is done forking and chaining. The shards can pierce.

    • Projectile Speed: Increased projectile speed will increase the velocity of the initial shield throw. Similarly to Ethereal Knives, the distance the shards travel is affected by projectile speed.

    • Increased Defences from Equipped Shield Passives: Despite raising the Defences of the equipped shield when taking passives of this nature, these passives do not raise the intrinsic values present on your shield and thus do NOT increase the damage of Spectral Shield Throw.

    • Totems: Spectral Shield Throw cannot be supported by Ballista Totem Support.

    • Attack Speed Modifiers: May not be acting as intended, with many modifiers not applying at 100% of their value.

    • Unarmed: Facebreaker and Doryani's Fist provide no damage bonus to Spectral Shield Throw.

    • Wands: Can be used with a wand, as long as there is a shield in the offhand.

    • Gloves: Sinistral Gloves increase damage with offhand, which includes shield offhand damage
