The Ancient Shield is a shield found in Breath of the Wild.
Breath of the Wild
The Ancient Shield has a base Shield Guard of 70 and durability of 32, making it one of the best shields in the game.
One can be obtained from "Cherry" in the Akkala Ancient Tech Lab for 1,000 Rupees, 10 Ancient Gears, 15 Ancient Springs, and 1 Giant Ancient Core per shield after lighting the tech lab's furnace with Blue Flame.
The shield can reflect Guardian beams directly back at the shooter; this frees the player from performing a Perfect Guard but at the cost of the shield's durability.
On average, the Ancient Shield is one of the absolutely best shields in the game for shield surfing in terms of friction (85% friction reduction) and acceleration due to its low sledding damage rate (1/5 durability points/sec), allowing Link to surf with it for more than 10 minutes. Only the Hylian Shield lasts more, but it has a higher sledding damage rate at 1/4 durability point/sec, making it slower.
When Link is carrying this shield, only the centerpiece shows; the blue parts only show up once it is held in the hand.
