The '''Tempest shield''' is a recurring [[shield]] in the {{DQSeries}}, first introduced in {{DQ4}}. Engraved with the face of a furious god, it blows away whole swaths of enemies with the strength of Zephyrus himself. While several guides state that the shield casts [[Poof]] on all enemies, the effect actually uses [[Whack]]'s instant death element to check enemy resistance. The confusion comes from the fact that enemies blown away do not give {{exp}}erience or [[gold]].

Added in the 1996 remake, the tempest shield increases {{Defence}} by +35 and can be equipped by every vocation save [[Mage]]s. Compared to other games, the [[shield]] has no extra effects aside from its high {{Defence}}. It also happens to be the most protective shield for [[Martial Artist]]s, [[Merchant]]s, and [[Gadabout]]s. It is found in the [[Romaria]] treasure vault which requires the [[Ultimate Key]] to access and can be sold for 577 [[gold]] coins, however it is not recommended to do so. In the {{Game Boy Color}} and {{Super Famicom}} versions, another shield can be in the final [[Treasures n' Trapdoors]] track at [[Jipang]].
