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 dripping with Gloom, recovered from Depths arenas alongside Gloom weapons. Dark energy boosts the shield's defense stat beyond normal materials, but carrying it slowly drains max hearts. Keep it as a last-resort high-defense option when approaching boss arenas. Counteract the Gloom drain with Sundelion meals and Lightroot visits.
