Blast Shield is a precept mod for MOAs that increases the MOA's Overshield capacity, and allows the MOA to jump at a target within range, dealing  Impact damage, refilling the MOA's Shields, and releasing a shockwave that knocks down enemies.

Acquisition

Blast Shield is automatically acquired upon obtaining a MOA built with the Nychus Model.

Notes

• The MOA's base Overshields are 600, resulting in a total Overshields capacity of 3600 at max rank.
• Shields (including Overshields) are fully replenished on ability use.
  • Synergizes with  Link Redirection and/or high-shield Warframes like  Hildryn.
  • Shield refill occurs even when mission modifiers (such as Nightmare or Sortie) disable them.^{[citation needed]}
• The shockwave knocks down any enemies that make contact with it.
  • The primary target is not knocked down.
  • The shockwave deals twice the damage of the initial hit.
• Like the other Nychus-Model Mod ( Hard Engage), Blast Shield is NOT affected by MOA's equipped weapon.
  • Unlike Hard Engage, Blast Shield is NOT affected by the equipped weapon's mods.
  • The weapon itself is still useful for ranged attack when neither mod's ability is being used.
