Shields have been a recurring piece of armor in the ''Dragon Quest'' series since the original game; when equipped, they increase the wielder's defense, reducing any damage taken and occasionally blocking certain attacks altogether. The most powerful shields, such as {{s|dragonquestwiki|Erdrick's Shield}}, are typically only available to the game's hero.

In ''Smash'', the Luminary uses {{s|dragonquestwiki|Erdwin's Shield}}, Erdrick wields the Shield of Heroes (also known as Erdrick's Shield), Solo uses the {{s|dragonquestwiki|Zenithian Shield}}, and Eight uses the {{s|dragonquestwiki|Dragovian Shield}}. Other elements of the shield's functionality, such as being able to shift its position by crouching, are derived from Link's moveset, and by proxy, the ''Zelda'' series.
