"This Lynel-made shield has been reinforced with armor and even more blades. Stronger in both defense and offense, it can tear through basic armor when deflecting."

Breath of the Wild In-Game Description

The Mighty Lynel Shield is a shield found in Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom.

Breath of the Wild

The Mighty Lynel Shield has a base Shield Guard of 44, and can be obtained by defeating Blue-Maned Lynels scattered in the overworld, for example in Deep Akkala. The blade is very large, but can still be wielded single-handed by Link. The design is fairly minimalist, with a more refined metal aesthetic which includes the use of chains, simply for fearmongering.

Alongside other Lynel shields, this shield can be used to attack when parrying. One swing of the shield produces 14 damage to the target, while consuming 1 point of durability. This attack is subject to Attack Up buffs from armor, foods and elixirs.

It is to be noted that, like other Mighty Lynel weapons and lesser, the appearances of this weapon deprecate as more Lynels are fought against. At a point, most Lynel and Mighty Lynel weapons will eventually turn into Savage Lynel weapons, as Lynels and Blue-Maned Lynels turn into White-Maned Lynels and Silver Lynels. Eventually, the only Mighty Lynel Shield that can still be obtained is from the Blue-Maned Lynel in Hyrule Castle.
