Shield Upgrade: How to Unlock the Hylian Shield.

In the series of Legend of Zelda, Hylian Shields are the frequently occurring objects that we come across in every version. These are the conventional shields carried by the knights of Hyrule and is consistently used by Link.

The Hylian shield is made up of steel, in terms of which, it does not burn when brought in contact with the fire. 

In the Zelda series, either you have the shield all along the adventure or sometimes you earn it by putting in some tough grind in the game’s progression.  Here’s how you can get your hands on the Hylian Shield in The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword HD.

Where to find the Hylian Shield In The Legend of Zelda?

You will find the Hylian Shield in Lanayru Gorge. To get a grasp of that Shield, you have to go through the Boss Rush Mode.

How to get The Hylian Shield?

To unlock the Hylian shield, you have to save the Thunder Dragon in Lanayru Gorge. 

To begin with the challenge, Link has to encounter boss fights. Lightning Round’s menu will allow Link to select the Boss Rush Mode and play against the bosses. You have to defeat the eight bosses in order to proceed in the game. However, you have to use the current shield, the only gear to fight the bosses.

When fighting with the bosses keep an account of your health. The healing power will be limited. So to finish off the battle you have to restore it again and again. 

Moreover, You’ll be allowed to select the first opponent of your choice, the others will be selected by Lanayru. 

After beating all the eight bosses, you will be rewarded with the Hylian Shield. At the end of the battle, the reward will be bestowed by Lanayru.

And because of Hylian Shield’s incredible durability, it is the most essential element of the game. You don’t have to worry about its health or its damage because it tolerates any electric-based or fire attacks with its extraordinary vitality.
