How to Beat Wooden Shield Moblin

Strategy

Wooden Shield Moblin have two stances, shield and no shield, and players will need to fight each stance differently.

Shielded Stance

While holding their shield, Wooden Shield Moblin will fight very defensively. Hiding behind their giant shields, they will approach slowly until they get in attacking range, where they will attack you with their long spears.

Players should slash away at the wooden shield until there is nothing left, which will trigger the next Moblin stance.

Offensive Stance

Once players slash enough of the shiled away, Wooden Shield Moblin will toss their shields and become more aggressive. Time your attacks carefully and be sure to avoid the Moblin's long spear.

Using Your Slingshot

While in the offensive stance, players can use their Slingshot or Scattershot to shoot the Moblin in the head. This will stun the Moblin while the player can get some free attacks and big damage in.
