Shield of Solitude

The Shield of Solitude is a shield given to you by Falk Firebeard for saving Skyrim from the return of the Wolf Queen in The Wolf Queen Awakened. It is identical in appearance to a Solitude Guard's Shield. Its enchantment grants a Resist Magic and Fortify Blocking effect, which reduces the damage taken from offensive spells and reduces the damage taken if you successfully block an attack.

Bugs

• This item can be disenchanted for a more powerful version of "Resist Magic" which tops at 25% (with enchant skill at 100) and can be stacked with the base Resist Magic enchantment of 20% using the Extra Effect to create a single item with 45% Resist Magic.
  • The Unofficial Skyrim Patch, version 2.0.0, fixes this bug.
• This item cannot be tempered.
  • The Unofficial Skyrim Patch, version 1.0, addresses this issue. Tempering the shield now requires an iron ingot and the Arcane Blacksmith perk.

Leveled Statistics

Note that the required level for the associated quest is player-level 10, so the "Level" column actually starts at 10 ('10-17', not '1-17'), making each leveled 'tier' 7 or 8 levels.
