Bug Report: Sacred Guardian Arcana Not Recognizing Guard Cylinder as a Shield

[white panther]

Hey team, I’d like to report a potential bug with Sacred Guardian Arcana.

Issue:
The Arcana doesn’t recognize a Guard Cylinder as a valid shield. Even though it’s equipped in the off-hand and meets the usual shield requirements for other skills, Sacred Guardian refuses to activate or proceed.

As you can see, the game says "You must equip a Melee Weapon and a Shield." even though I have a melee weapon and Guard Cylinder equipped.

Expected Result:
Guard Cylinders should count as valid shields for Sacred Guardian Arcana (if intentional design). If not intended, it should probably be clarified in the Arcana requirements.

Patch note page explicitly mentions Guard Cylinders as an excluded class of shield. Spellbook-Shields also do not work if I remember correctly.

Aww comeon why? That shield looked prefect for the Arcane.
