It’s an interesting piece of equipment this, benefits from Transcendent Suffering, counts as both a Shield and another attack so you benefit from both Sword and Style and Two Weapon Style. But a couple of things I need to do some science on...

 

1. About how much damage do you lose opting for this? The deflection does seem nice.

 

2. If I’m playing Shattered Pillar does the extra wounds bonus apply? (Just when you’re dealing damage not taking it?)

I recently made a post before coming across yours.

 

Any you confirm that this shield benefits from "Two Weapon" style & "Sword and Shield" style?

Yes it does benefit from both.
