Small shields=0 slots.
bigger one with less than 8 weight=1 slot
8 weight or more=2 slots

There are many exceptions. I've had shield skill for the past 3 yrs and I didn't know the Heavy Kite was 1-slot until I got one, for instance.
Bucklers are 0-slot
All 7kg+ shields are 2-slot, except the Board Shield, which is 7kg and 1-slot.
Triangle Shield is 5.5 kg and 2-slot.

It would be very nice if this info was on the website.

I've made STF chars just to find out how many slots certain shields required. A roundabout way to get the info, but beats spending my own gold.

Seems like a logical addition along with attack animations a weapon uses, secondary mode stats, whether or not a weapon is usable with a shield, and speed rating for ranged weapons inside the detailed box that pops up (currently displays missile speed twice).

For the pragmatic:

The two bucklers are the only 0s shields.

Most shields are 1s. Heavy heater is definitely 1s, so I don't think the 7 weight rule above is up to date.

The 2s shields that I know of are steel shield, and heavy board shield, but I haven't tried all of them.
