Enemies that cannot be disarmed with the [[Perfect Guard]] regardless of the Shield Guard value include [[Lynel#Breath of the Wild|Lynels]], [[Yiga Clan]]smen and armed [[Guardian Scout]]s. On these cases, they have to be slain/destroyed in order for them to drop their weaponry.
The maximum possible Shield Guard in the game is the [[Hylian Shield#Breath of the Wild|Hylian Shield]], with a base guard of 90, a maximum white bonus of 122 or a maximum yellow bonus of 144. The shield without bonuses can effectively disarm most of the melee combatant enemies in the game, save from [[Silver Moblin]]s wielding [[Royal Claymore]]s at [[Hyrule Castle]].
