Shield Mastery

Prerequisite: Character 4th Level or Higher

You can wield a shield as an extension of your own body. While wielding a shield, you gain these benefits:

• As a bonus action, you can attempt to shove a creature within 5 feet of you with your shield. If you move 10 feet or more directly toward a creature before using this bonus action, you have advantage on the check.

• When you use your action to Dodge, your AC increases by an amount equal to the armor bonus of your shield.

• When you make a DEX save to avoid taking damage, you can use your reaction to halve any damage taken by taking shelter behind your shield.
