"Rito warriors cherish this shield. Its unique shape is designed with mid-battle flight in mind to facilitate aerial combat."
The Kite Shield is a shield found in Breath of the Wild. It has a base Shield Guard of 14, and can be found in the surrounding regions of the Rito Village, usually inside of Treasure Chests in Bokoblin Camps. It is 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.
It's one of the rarest shields in the game. Only 3 Kite Shields exist within Hyrule (two on the base game, one in Master Mode), and once broken, do not reappear. Neither Rito nor monsters are shown wearing them.
They can be found on, first, northwest of the Hebra Plunge on the shore before the waterfall, second, on the northernmost skull lair at the North Tabantha Snowfield, and third (DLC), inside the water in the first waterfall of the Hebra Falls.
