Feat: Spear and Shield

Spear and Shield General Combat

Summary

You have trained in the use of a two-handed spear and shield together

Prerequisites

Shield Proficiency

Benefit

You can use spear or longspear together with a shield of any size (including a tower shield if you have Tower Shield Proficiency), despite the fact that these are two-handed weapons.

Special

Notes

This feat is right at home in ancient Greece, where hypaspists used it. The shield is slung over the shoulder and maneuvered with the offhand that simultaneously holds the spear.
