Soldier's Shields are recurring Items in The Legend of Zelda series.[1][2] Soldier's Shields go unnamed in Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity.

Location and Uses

Breath of the Wild

Hyrule Compendium Entry
357  (362Master Mode) Soldier's Shield
Description
A shield once used by the guards of Hyrule Castle. It's easy to handle, but its core is made of wood, so it can catch fire.
Common Locations
Tabantha Frontier
Hyrule Field
Properties
Def 16

Soldier's Shields are mid-grade Shield known to have once been used by the guards of Hyrule Castle.[1] They belong to the Soldier's Gear equipment archetype, a series of Weapons intended for soldiers of Hyrule Kingdom.[3] They boast a moderately high defense rating as well as a decent durability. They can be found almost anywhere throughout Hyrule Kingdom, though an easy spot is Snowfield Stable on the Tabantha Tundra.

A Soldier's Shield is sold by Russ on Trilby Plain for 100 Rupees.[4] When Link buys it, Russ calls him a bona fide Shield Surfer, and he then shares the legend of Selmie.[5] Selmie also gives Link a Soldier's Shield for completing the Shield-Surfing Mini-Game with a time between 2:00 and 2:15.[6]

The following amiibos have a chance to spawn a Treasure Chest containing a Soldier's Shield when they are scanned with the amiibo Rune:

Despite their appearance, Soldier's Shields have a core made of wood, and therefore can burn when exposed to Fire or a Scorching Climate.[1] In addition, the Magnesis Rune will not work on them, and they cannot conduct Electricity or attract Lightning during Thunderstorms. Finally, they will float if they are dropped in Water.
