|name=Improved Shield Bash
|types=Fighter
|summary=You can make a shield bash without losing your shield bonus to AC, and make them as primary attacks instead of off-hand attacks.
|prereqs=Proficiency with light and heavy shields.
|fluff=You are always armed as long as you have your trusty shield.
|benefit=When you perform a shield bash, you may still apply the shield’s shield bonus to your AC. Additionally shield bash attacks made in your primary hand count as primary hand attacks instead of off-hand attacks. Furthermore, a character with this feat increase the damage dealt by a shield bash as if the shield were designed for a creature one size category larger than her. This does not stacks with [[SRD:Heavy_Shield#Enhancements|shield spikes]], but does with the [[SRD:Bashing|bashing]] enhancement.
|example=<!-- If your feat has a complicated mechanic, give an example of how it works. -->
|normal=Without this feat, a character who performs a shield bash loses the shield’s shield bonus to AC until his or her next turn and shield bash are always off-hand attacks.
