Shielded Brute codex entry
The game's own description of this enemy.
In-game codexBrutes armed with a short blade and round shield. Their stances look convincing until the flaws show: too slow to begin, too quick to recover. When the shield rises, the legs are exposed. Still, their light feet can punish anyone who relies on strength alone.
No master taught them these forms. They picked them up at market fighting rings and caravan resting places. Once, they hoped to save enough to seek a teacher. Then they counted the household grain and their elders' medicine, and put the dream aside... Transcension took only days, with no money and no journey required.
Shielded Brute is one of the Maskwalkers in Phantom Blade Zero, with 500 base HP, 500 Sha-Chi and 100 attack. You meet it in Weeping Creek Valley at level 3–4. It has several weaknesses (Frost +16%, Poison +16%, Water +16%), so most elemental weapons and Phantom Edges work. Each kill pays up to 210 Remnant Dust. It also drops The Matchmaker's Advice.
