Is the SP skill 'Shield Bash' usable with a kite/large shield? Or just the smaller ones?

Hey, your guide is excellent. It taught me a bunch of useful tricks. Though I do wonder if more priority should be given to Combat Mastery, if only for that video of Red Tyrant where Fiona used mostly Heavy Stander and Normal Attacks. What do you think about that? =x
Edit
(I just noticed the sprinklings of Blossom and Magnolia in there, but even so D: a lot of normal hits <_<)
Also, what is that buff that caused the shields to spin around Fiona called and what does it do?
Normal Attacks aren't good, and Fiona has a disadvantage at Raid Bosses like Red Tyrant. And just ranking it for that seems wasteful, main strength of Fiona is her extremely powerful Smash Attacks.
As for that skill, I'm not sure, probably Holy Shield, it increases DEF.

Shield Bash can be used with any shield.

Is there any reason not to use this all the time? The wiki says it only costs 1 bar of SP, and Fiona seems to gain it back quickly from blocks/heavy stander, though I rarely see this move being used in high level videos I"ve seen. Are stuns not that important later on?

Guard and Shield Mastery help a lot. Then Heavy Stander once you get it. Then just go for whatever/Counter.

From what I've seen in some videos, Fionas seem to prefer using that shield Dash SP Skill instead of the Bash. probably because it deals damage as well as stuns? Not sure though =P

Str gives you pure ATK, so it positively affects both normal and smash attacks(I think).

Bakuryu, the table says you need Rank D Longsword Mastery for getting Hammer Mastery, but then you go ahead and have Rank C Longsword Mastery under your list of skills.

Guard = Max.
Shield Mastery should be maxed, if you plan on using shields, and not large shields. I say leave it D-C, and try out Large Shields when they come out, then make that decision.

Alright so Guard> max then Shield mastery to D then heavy stander?

Heavy Stander to A.
The ability to not take any damage while in Heavy Stander is worth it.
