The Hylian shield is unique gameplay element that allows link to block projectiles on the upper/lower of his body whilst standing or crouching, while not holding an item.

====Shield Yielding====
Shield yielding is when your Hylian shield bubble appears where it was last active for a frame instead of where Link currently is. This glitch can be caused by first letting the shield be activate to “plant it” then NIL to make it appear there for 1 frame before going back to Links hand.
