The Hylian Shield has a wooden base with a metal overlay, although in Twilight Princess, the shield is completely metal. In all appearances, the shield is resistant to fire. In Skyward Sword, the shield is indestructible and is also resistant to electricity. It is very durable, capable of blocking a large variety of attacks without breaking. It is the shield the Hylian soldiers use in war.
This shield is the most used in the game and, interestingly, is used by Link in games like Twilight Princess and Skyward Sword. Because it is made of metal, this shield will not burn or break. The only problem is that this item can be eaten by a Like Like. Therefore, it can be purchased, usually within the range of 80 rupees (60 if you talk to Kakariko's guard before). However, it is possible to find one of these for free, in the cemetery of Kakariko Village, at night, near one of the tombs closest to the tombstone of the Royal Family.
