Compulsion is one of the Legendary Kite Shields in New World. Kite Shields, alongside Round Shields and Tower Shields, are one of the available types of Shields for players. They are just in the middle in terms of stats, making them a more balanced option for players. Shields have to be worn in the offhand slot.
