Last Resource
Due to its high Block Damage Reduction, this shield could be seen as a way to limit damage when it's impossible to escape an attack, not even with the dodge roll;

Tanking
Another sensible usage of the Front Line Shield is to use it to endure the damage of hard-to-dodge attacks, such as the Hand of the King's Arena-long Shockwave attack, instead of hazarding a dodge and risking to take severe damage
