Homm4: Steadfast Shield

[Lagosnepszi]

Hi,

maybe a stupid question, but I'm playing campaign 1-3, and got two shields, one is Death Shield - gives all friendly creatures +30% to their melee and ranged defense -> which I tried by checking unequipped and equipped and it really increases defense.
But the other one is the Steadfast Shield, which says gives all friendly "targets" the same amount (30%) of defense -> but this gives nothing.
Is this a bug? What does "target" mean here? Shall I activate it somehow?
Thanks!

Leprechaun's ring also states "targets" but that really increases the luck for every friendly creatures.

You only need to equip it on your character, like you did with the Death Shield. I think target is just another word used instead of creature, but I never noticied any bugs related to it, causing it not to work. But that would be a bug.
