In Diablo II Resurrected, Lance Guard is part of the Barbed Shield category and one of many unique Shields in D2R. It is a relatively big item, taking 6 Blocks of space if you want to store it in the inventory or stash. Your character needs to reach at least the Required Level of 35 to carry this item. This Barbed Shield has a Strength Requirement of 65 before it can be used.
The Barbed Shield is the exceptional version of this Shield. It can be upgraded to the elite version by putting it into the Horadric Cube. After hitting the transmute button it will be called Blade Barrier. The most basic (normal) version is called Spiked Shield.
Note: If this item can have sockets, you might be able to get some runes and get one of the runewords as a result - if you place them in the correct order.
