Then the Wizard changed history with the Shield spell. See here for a similar explanation phrased a little differently. It's easy to understand how this works in terms of gameplay: wizard gets hit, wizard casts Shield, wizard does or doesn't get hit based on his new AC including Shield. How it works in-game is, well, magic! (Alternatively, if ...

The Shield Master Feat allows players who've used an attack action to use a bonus action to shove a creature. If the creature is within 5 feet, it can be knocked prone or pushed away from the player. While knocking a creature prone is an excellent way to set up your teammates for an attack, shoving your target is often more effective.
So I was recently playing a wizard that used magic missile a ton; but due to there not being a lot of tank type characters I took the spell shield to help negate some damage aimed at me(+5 ac till next turn). So basically something would swing at me and I could (with the use of a spell slot) make my ac 20 till my next turn.
Thin and wispy flames wreathe your body for the duration, shedding bright light in a 10-foot radius and dim light for an additional 10 feet. You can end the spell early by using an action to dismiss it. The flames provide you with a warm shield or a chill shield, as you choose. The warm shield grants you resistance to cold damage, and the chill shield grants you resistance to fire damage
Shield does not, so it seems odd to me that it would be re-listed in blue. I know that casting Shield at 4th or higher level could make it harder to use Dispel Magic or Counterspell against it. However, it still seems inconsistent to repeat it in blue at higher levels; you can cast any spell using a higher level slot, but others without "At ...
The Wizard table shows how many spell slots you have to cast your wizard spells of 1st level and higher. To cast one of these spells, you must expend a slot of the spell's level or higher. You regain all expended spell slots when you finish a long rest. You prepare the list of wizard spells that are available for you to cast.
Forge Cleric level 1. You get Heavy Armor, Shields, and a +1 to your armor, while still keeping full spell progression. You also get Shield of Faith (More AC), Healing Word (Level 1, bring up an unconscious ally is preeeeety good), and other goodies. Go War Wizard for the rest. With Plate and Shield, your base will be 21 AC.
$begingroup$ This isn't a bad answer, but it seems to overlook the matter of shield/armor proficiencies for a given class in the PHB. proficiency with shields is listed under armor proficiencies (or it isn't) in the proficiencies for each PC class. Example Proficiencies Armor Ranger: Proficiencies Armor: Light armor, medium armor, shields. Proficiencies Armor …
Really a Wizard avoids damage by staying away from things that want to hurt him and nuking it, rather than by wearing lots of armor. Short answer is technically yes but unless you somehow gain proficiency you'll suffer heavy negatives for it including the inability to cast spells. Two spells: Mage Armor and Shield.

Starting at 2nd level, you can invoke an elven magic called the Bladesong, provided that you aren't wearing medium or heavy armor or using a shield. It graces you with supernatural speed, agility, and focus. You can use a bonus action to start the Bladesong, which lasts for 1 minute.
