Like the Wooden and Iron Shields, the Sacred Shield can be upgraded twice.
 
===Divine Shield===

{{Main|Divine Shield}}
The first upgrade to the Sacred Shield is the [[Divine Shield]]. The Divine Shield has more durability than the Sacred Shield, and shares the ability of restoring itself after taking damage.{{Ref|SS|737|Gear Menu Description}} The upgrade can be performed by [[Gondo]] at the [[Scrap Shop]] within the [[Bazaar]]. In order to do the upgrade, Link needs to collect three [[Ornamental Skull]]s, two [[Bird Feather]]s, one [[Dusk Relic]], and 100 Rupees.
 
===Goddess Shield===

{{Main|Goddess Shield}}
The second, and final, upgrade to the Sacred Shield is the [[Goddess Shield]]. This shield is a lot more durable than the previous two, which, combined with its ability to restore itself, means that the likelihood of it ever breaking is extremely low. In order to perform this upgrade, Link needs to supply Gondo with four [[Dusk Relic]]s, three [[Bird Feather]]s, three [[Monster Horn (Skyward Sword)|Monster Horn]]s, one [[Blue Bird Feather]], and 150 Rupees.

The Sacred Shield is a shield from Skyward Sword. It can be purchased at the Gear Shop[1] within the Bazaar of Skyloft, for a hefty 500 Rupees.[2] It only becomes available once Link has defeated The Imprisoned for the first time.

The Sacred Shield's main selling point is the fact that it repairs itself upon being damaged overtime,[3][4] unlike the wooden and iron shields. However, it is more fragile than the aforementioned shields,[3] needing a lot less damage to break. The Sacred Shield can block all sorts of attacks, including fire, electricity, and curse attacks.[3][5] Furthermore, the Sacred Shield has the special ability of being able to startle Cursed Bokoblins when they see the shield.[6]

The Sacred Shield can be upgraded to the Divine Shield and the Goddess Shield.

  2. 2.1 2.2 "Ahaa! That's a Sacred Shield! As you might surmise from its name, it can handle all variety of attacks! Fire? Not a sweat! Electricity? No painful zaps! Plus, it will automatically repair itself when it sustains damage! It's a little fragile, but that shouldn't be a problem for one as talented and agile as yourself! At a cost of 500 Rupees, it's an investment...but an excellent one! Care to buy it?
    OK! :No, thanks." — Rupin, Skyward Sword.
