The Magical Shield is an item from The Legend of Zelda. This shield is able to fend off the spells cast by Wizzrobes, sword beams from Lynels, and energy balls belched by various monsters including the River Zora. It bears a cross insignia and is significantly larger than the smaller shield Link carries from the outset. It can be purchased in many of the shops found across Hyrule for varying prices; either 160 Rupees, 130 Rupees, or 90 Rupees depending on the shop.

Like Likes have a fondness for shields. If it manages to engulf Link and he does not escape within a few seconds at the most, the Like Like will eat the Magical Shield. Defeating the Like Like does not return the shield, so Link will have to buy a new one if it is eaten by a Like Like. Since Like Likes are usually found in conjunction with Wizzrobes, losing the shield adds the danger of fighting out through a dungeon while unable to block their spells.

[edit] Soulcalibur II

Together with the Magical Sword, the Magical Shield is part of Link's set of weapons from The Legend of Zelda. It can be bought for 3000 gold in chapters 6,7,8 and Subchapter 3. The combination is good for penetrating defenses, but is weak against impact.
