The '''Wooden Shield''' is a recurring [[shield]] in [[The Legend of Zelda (Series)|''The Legend of Zelda'' series]]. They are typically the weakest shield and the first shield [[Link]] obtains.


Wooden Shields can block most attacks, but are highly susceptible to fire and leaves Link bereft of a shield. This is a weakness that only wooden shields possess, since all metal shields do not have a weakness that causes them to break. In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword|Skyward Sword]]'', they offer resistance to electricity to make up for their weakness to fire.

Similarly to the Deku Shield from ''Ocarina of Time'', the Ordon Shield is a ''Wooden'' shield that appears in ''Twilight Princess''. [[Wolf Link]] steals it from [[Jaggle's House]] after [[Midna]] tells him to search the [[Ordon Village|village]] for a Sword and Shield. It is a small plain brown shield, and has an Ordonian goat's head and horns patterned onto it.

This is the only time [[Link (Twilight Princess)|Link]] can obtain this shield, if it is burnt, it is lost forever.

The Wooden Shield makes a return once more in ''Breath of the Wild'', this time as a shield available relatively early on in [[Link (Breath of the Wild)|Link]]'s quest. However, its properties are weak. Wooden shields have a defense rating of just 2, with only 12 durability. As such, it mainly is used as a placeholder shield. These shields can be found sporadically throughout [[Hyrule]], all lying on the ground.  One can be photographed on the wall of [[Selmie's Spot]].

The Wooden Shield appears in ''Tears of the Kingdom'' in pracitcally its same appearance and stats as in ''Breath of the Wild''; as a shield available relatively early on in [[Link (Tears of the Kingdom)|Link]]'s quest, primarily after he has descended back onto Hyrule's surface from the [[Great Sky Island]]. As before, its properties are weak. Wooden shields have a defense rating of just 2, with only 12 durability. As such, it mainly is used as a placeholder shield. These shields can be found sporadically throughout [[Hyrule]], all lying on the ground. Like the previous game, a Wooden Shield can be found/photographed on the wall at [[Selmie's Spot]].
