The Kite Shield has a base [[Shield Guard]] of 14, and has an unusual design for a shield, however it does function as well as other shields of the same defense rating. In appearance, it is in the rough shape of a kite, sporting many different colors and [[Rito]] feathers attached to the base of the shield. | The Kite Shield has a base [[Shield Guard]] of 14, and has an unusual design for a shield, however it does function as well as other shields of the same defense rating.

It's one of the rarest shields in the game. Only four Kite Shields exist within [[Hyrule]] (three in the base game, one in [[Master Mode]]), and once broken do not reappear, rendering them irrecoverable. Neither [[Rito]] nor monsters are shown wielding them. | It's one of the rarest shields in the game.

Contrary to popular belief, the Kite Shield has only average-to-low [[shield surfing]] statistics overall in spite of its reputation otherwise. It amounts to 0.25 durability points/sec, which at 16 points of durability amounts to just 64 seconds of sledding. | Contrary to popular belief, the Kite Shield has only average-to-low [[shield surfing]] statistics overall in spite of its reputation otherwise.
