Royal Guard's Shields are found in [[Hyrule Castle]], either abandoned or being used by the [[Enemies in Breath of the Wild|enemies]] inside.

Being made of metal, {{Plural|BotW|Royal Guard's Shield}} conduct {{Term|BotW|Electricity|link}} and will attract {{Term|BotW|Lightning|link}} if equipped during {{Plural|BotW|Thunderstorm|link}}.

Being made of metal, Royal Guard's Shields will attract [[Lightning]] if they're equipped during thunderstorms. However, they won't burn like wood shields do when exposed to [[Fire]] or a [[Scorching Climate]]. They will also sink if they're dropped in water, but they can be picked up and manipulated with the [[Magnesis]] [[Rune]].
