Blade Shield creates a barrier that periodically deals damage to any enemy within a 4y radius. It scales with weapon damage, which makes it even more useful for Martial Artist builds as they generally have higher weapon damage output than Trappers. Blade Shield damages weapon durability when it activates against attackers.
This skill does not trigger "On Striking" spells. It does, however, trigger On Attack spells.
