Masteria Expansions, Names and the proof for each

I think we might have to stop calling it a shield.

Look back at the picture of the female enemy.

 Spoiler

To the far right is a cutoff of the same enemy.
What are the chances someones aggroed it?

Considering its likely a guided/private play through, the orb might just be a part of its animation sets.

But still, for a while at least a (x)bow could dream of a shield.
