Data-driven analysis
Weapon Shielding delivers 2.5 out of combat regen, 250 damage threshold, and 4.0s time frame. These bonuses determine which heroes and builds below actually benefit from the slot, and why the win rates on certain heroes skew so far above or below the item's average.
Weapon Shielding performs strongest on Victor (57.8% WR across 17,028 games), Graves (53.5% WR across 17,395 games), and Seven (52.3% WR across 7,133 games). These heroes convert the item's stat bonuses into real win rate gains, usually because their kit scales linearly with the stats the item provides. If you play one of these heroes, this item belongs in your core build.
In terms of raw pickup volume, Weapon Shielding shows up most on Shiv (54,197 games), Silver (34,819 games), and Mina (30,319 games). High pickup does not always mean high performance, so cross reference this list with the best heroes card above before blindly copying a build.
Weapon Shielding requires Grit as components, with a combined component cost of 800 souls before you factor in the upgrade fee.
Weapon Shielding sits at a 47.9% win rate and has barely moved over the last few weeks, which means the item is at its steady state pick rate in the current patch.
Weapon Shielding peaks in the Eternus bracket at 50.1% and drops to 47.9% in Initiate. The 2.2 percentage point gap suggests the item rewards coordination or mechanical execution that only higher ranks consistently deliver.
