A Nova Shield produces a large explosion when depleted, causing elemental damage to all enemies in the blast radius. The shield must fully recharge between novas.
Nova Shields are best suited to melee-focused character builds who spend a lot of their time among enemies; the Nova is an excellent tool to prime enemies for getting Second Winds by weakening them with a burst of damage.
