- Tempest Shield (11)
"Defeat enemies with melee weapons to level this skill." Caps at 99 like every other skill.
The reason to push the first dozen levels quickly is Tempest Shield at level 11, costing 15 Air runes, which prevents damage while you are blocking. On a game where blocking spends stamina that you also need for dodging and attacking, a block that actually stops damage changes the maths of every melee fight.
Past that, Attack is what carries you up the weapon ladder from Stone through to Dragon.
