Ever wondered how to make those battles a bit easier in Genshin Impact? Yes, we’re talking about using a shield! Shields can be a game-changer, so let’s dive into how you can wield this mighty defense.

Using a shield in Genshin Impact isn’t just about protecting yourself; it’s about strategizing your way to victory. So, how exactly do you go about using one?

Shield Basics in Genshin Impact

First things first, to use a shield, you’ll need a character that can generate one. Characters like Noelle, Zhongli, and Diona are pros at this. Once you have such a character in your party, activating their shield ability is as simple as using their Elemental Skill.

These shields absorb a set amount of damage before breaking. Some are even element-specific, offering increased protection against certain types of damage. So, choosing the right character for the job is crucial.

Making the Most of Your Shield

But it’s not just about popping a shield and hoping for the best. Timing and combination play a big role. For example, activating a shield before a big enemy attack can save your team from a heap of trouble. Moreover, combining shield abilities with other character skills can lead to powerful combo attacks and defense strategies.

Remember, while a shield is active, you’re free to attack, explore, or use other abilities without worrying about taking hits. This opens up a world of tactical options for you to explore and master.
