Improved Shield Bash

Combat

You can protect yourself with your shield, even if you use it to attack.

Prerequisite: Shield Proficiency.

Benefit: When you perform a shield bash, you may still apply the shield’s shield bonus to your AC.

Normal: Without this feat, a character that performs a shield bash loses the shield’s shield bonus to AC until his next turn (see Chapter 6).
