{{Main|Metal Shield Moblin, Wooden Shield Moblin}}
In {{SS}}, Moblins appear as corpulent red monsters twice the size of [[Link]]. Their brute strength and durable Shields they carry makes them considerably dangerous enemies. Shield Moblins begin to appear after the trial at [[Silent Realm|Farore's Silent Realm]] is completed. They can be then found in [[Faron Woods#Skyward Sword|Faron Woods]], [[Lanayru Desert]], [[Eldin Volcano]], [[Skipper's Retreat]], the [[Sky Keep]], and during the [[Horde Battle]].

Shield Moblins come in two variants in {{SS|-}}, both equipped with spears and Shields.

====Wooden Shield Moblin====
{{Fi|Wooden Shield Moblin|This massive monster's wall-sized shield gives it a tactical advantage. When its shield is at the ready, most attacks will be quite futile. The destruction of its shield is likely to drive the monster into a rage, instantly increasing its threat.}}
'''Wooden Shield Moblins''' brandish a wooden, square-shaped Shield and a long wooden spear. Its only attack is stabbing Link with its spear. Link can cut its shield down into small pieces with his [[Sword]], leaving the beast defenseless and open for attack. The Moblin can counterattack this if it turns its Shield and Link strikes it. However, after the Shield has been cut down, it will become enraged and use both hands to swing its spear at Link aggressively, and also charge at Link (if he keeps his distance) while using its spear as a jostling vault. Link can also jump behind the Moblin by dashing onto its Shield and climbing over it, jumping over and exposing the monster's behind for an attack. After a Moblin is defeated, it will tumble forward; if Link stands too close to the Moblin when it falls, he will be knocked back by the Moblin's heavy body, but will not be damaged.
====Metal Shield Moblin====
{{Fi|Metal Shield Moblin|This Moblin has a sturdy iron shield. Only a few Moblins are capable of carrying a large, heavy shield of iron like this one. I calculate an 85% chance that you can {{Color|SS Red|climb over}} that large shield as if it were a wall.}}

Later in the game, a second variety of Moblin known as a '''Metal Shield Moblin''' appears. They carry an iron Shield that cannot be cut down by Link's Sword and is impervious to [[Bomb]]s, requiring that Link climb over the Shield in order to attack its backside. They are also more heavily armored and wear an iron helmet, and take more hits to defeat. This type of Moblin is rare, but Link has to face two of them at once on a bridge in the Sky Keep as part of a long battle sequence.

{{Sectstub}}
Shield Moblins appear similarly to [[Spear Moblin]]s, but are more heavily armored. They only appear in Lorule and behave similarly to [[Sword Soldiers]] such as seeking out and chasing Link upon detecting him. Unlike Sword Soldiers, the moblin shield is much more effective and thus they are more difficult enemies. Their shield can only be destroyed by [[Master Sword Lv2]] and [[Master Sword Lv3]], though a hookshoot can remove it. The regular Shield Moblin variant has a blue loincloth and a machete like sword, whilst the more powerful variant has a red loincloth and a two pronged spear.

In {{NL}}, Shield Moblins and '''Helmet Moblins''' are enemies that appear in the {{BQ}} attraction, bearing the likenesses of Moblins equipped with Shields. Helmeted Moblins are similar to Shield Moblins, but wear pots on their heads as helmets for extra defense. It is possible to break the Moblins' Shields with a Sword strike. They also come in varieties, with red being the second strongest and purple being the strongest.

In {{HW}}, Moblins based on the Shield Moblins from {{SS|-}} appear as powerful, elite [[Captain (Hyrule Warriors)|Captain]]s. They come in wooden and iron Shield variants, the former of which is simply referred to as a Moblin, and the iron Shield variant called a Shield Moblin. Both variants behave and attack identically; they carry wooden spears they use to attack with, but unlike those of {{SS|-}}, they do not actively defend themselves.
