It's a counter attacker weapon capitalizing on enemies mistakes. But unlike other weapons capitalizing on missing the shield and flail depend on hitting you on the hitting you on the wrong time since the invincibility frames are wide but come rather late. With it's counter attacks being great openers of used correctly the flail and shield can be a great weapon with high damage
