Shield Specialization was a Barbarian passive skill in early versions of Diablo III. It used to increase the chance to block with a shield by X% and the amount of damage blocked by X.
This ability does not reappear in the revised skill system, but some Crusader skills and Sword and Board passive are reminiscent to it.
