IMO you're not supposed to be "actively" shielding like SCHs. During Noct, what you make up for your SCH partner is that massive Benefic II. Yes, it's stronger than a cure II and it's something a scholar can appreciate. The noct shield is for stuff like OH SHIT I FORGOT from my personal experience.
