This embossed steel buckler (Hardness 4, HP 12, BT 6) is designed to not interfere with the hand an archer uses to pull back their bowstring. When you Raise a Shield with this buckler, the circumstance bonus to AC it grants against ranged Strikes increases to +2. This increased bonus doesn't apply to unusually massive ranged projectiles (such as boulders or ballista bolts).

Traits

Common

Anything that doesn't list another rarity trait (uncommon, rare, or unique) automatically has the common trait. This rarity indicates that an ability, item, or spell is available to all players who meet the prerequisites for it. A creature of this rarity is generally known and can be summoned with the appropriate summon spell.

Magical

Something with the magical trait is imbued with magical energies not tied to a specific tradition of magic. Some items or effects are closely tied to a particular tradition of magic. In these cases, the item has the arcane, divine, occult, or primal trait instead of the magical trait. Any of these traits indicate that the item is magical.
