Golden Shields are a mechanic of end-of-page bosses in Omenroad that limits the amount of damage a boss can take per turn. If the damage limit is reached in one turn, the shield will be "Broken", removing one level of the buff. If all shields are broken, the damage limit will be removed.

Specifics

  • The damage counter resets at the start of the enemy turn, so damage such as from poison, Guardian, and Ambush count toward the limit for the player's next turn.
  • In Omenroad Challenges, the number of shields and the damage limit of each shield depends on the page number the boss is encountered and whether or not legacy heroes are used.
Number and damage limits of Golden Shields
Type of Challenge Page 1 Page 2 Page 3
Greenhorn 1 (20) 1 (20) 2 (20, 25)
Legacy 1 (20) 2 (20, 25) 3 (20, 25, 30)

Tips

  • Golden Shields require the player to have a strategy for surviving the boss's abilities instead of focusing on killing them before they are able to use any.
