HP is the shield's ability to keep damage away from you, and the sturdiness of the shield.
AP is the amount of damage a shield may ignore from each blow before it takes damage itself.
Covers indicates locations protected by passively interposing the shield, which precludes an active parry attempt. Effective vs. missile weapons attacks; covering doesn’t add any shield defenses vs. Critical Hits by any weapon.
