Buckler Shield in Dungeons & Dragons 5e

Buckler Shield

Armor Light Common

A Buckler Shield is a smaller shield that is designed to aid martial combatants. While wearing this shield, you gain a +1 bonus to AC. You can also make an attack with the buckler as a bonus action. You use your Strength modifier and proficiency bonus (if proficient) to determine your attack modifier, and it deals 1d4 bludgeoning damage on a hit. If you are proficient with shield, you add the proficiency bonus to the damage roll. When equipped, you cannot gain the benefits from the Duelist Fighting Style or the Shield Master feat. You can wield two Bucklers to increase the AC but it does not grant additional attacks.
