<onlyinclude>{{Talent |image= Hardened Shield Icon.png |name= Hardened Shield |type= Active |cd=60 |description=Activate to gain 75 Armor for 4 seconds, taking 75% less damage. |tier= 7 |herolevel= 20 }}</onlyinclude> '''Hardened Shield''' is a [[generic Talent|generic]] level 20 [[Talent]], that can be activated to provide 75 [[Armor]] for 4 seconds. It used to be very common on Tanks and Bruisers, but has been slowly replaced by flavor Talents or removed completely. ==Mechanics== Hardened Shield is an Active Ability that grants its used 75 Armor. Hardened Shield has no cast time. Like other Armor effects, it does not stack with other Armor effects and has no effect on [[Percent Damage]] whatsoever. == Heroes with Hardened Shield == === Base Version === * [[Muradin]] === Modified Version === * [[Anub'arak]]'s level 20 Talent, "The Traitor King", passively increases his Health by 10% and grants him 20 [[Spell Armor]]. Can be activated to grant him 75 Armor for 4 seconds on 60 second cooldown. * [[Cho]]'s level 16 Talent, "Twilight Veil", can be activated to instantly switch his Trait to Ogre Hide and increase its Armor bonus from 25 to 75 for 4 seconds. 60s cooldown. * [[Rexxar]]'s level 20 Talent, "Hardened Skin", can be activated to grant himself and Misha 75 Armor for 4 seconds. 60s cooldown. * [[Sonya]]'s level 20 Talent, "Ignore Pain", can be activated to grant 60 Armor for 4 seconds. Can be used during Whirlwind. 60s cooldown. * [[Tyrael]]'s level 20 Talent, "Defense of the Angels", grants 50 Armor for 3 seconds. Each Basic Attack or Basic Ability that hits an enemy Hero increases its duration by 0.5 seconds. 60s cooldown. ===Removed=== These Heroes no longer have Hardened Shield as a Talent option: * [[Arthas]] * [[Chen]] * [[Dehaka]] * [[Gazlowe]] * [[Leoric]] * [[Stitches]] :* Stitches also had a modified version of the Talent, "Shambling Horror", which could be activated to grant 50 Armor for 4 seconds and prevent Stitches's Movement Speed from being reduced below 100%. 60s cooldown. ==Similar effects== These Talents replaced Hardened Shield on their respective Heroes as a means of late game damage mitigation, but do not share the mechanic of being independently activatable Armor effects like the original: * [[Arthas]]' level 20 talent, "Anti-Magic Shell", grants immunity to Spell Damage for 4 seconds and heals for 25% of the damage prevented. 60s cooldown. * [[Chen]]'s level 20 talent, "Untapped Potential", grants 75 armor for Wandering Keg's duration and 3 seconds afterwards, and increases the Movement Speed bonus of Wandering Keg from 75% to 125%. * [[Leoric]]'s level 20 talent, "Shroud of the Dead King", grants [[Protected]] for 3 seconds. 30s cooldown. {{Generic talent nav}} [[Category:Talents]] [[Category:Gameplay]]
