Maren's Tip
Try fusing this weapon with monster parts for extra damage. Silver Lynel horns add the most attack power of any fusible material!
Description
A corrupted shield drenched in Gloom, dropped by Phantom Ganon in the Depths. The highest blocking power of any non-legendary shield. The Gloom Shield damages Link via contact when blocking — equip Gloom-resistant armor and keep Sundelion Elixirs handy. Despite the drawback, its raw guard strength makes it the best shield for surviving Lynel charges and Hinox stomps.
