Link starts with a small shield which works with rocks and spears (arrow). Upgrade to a magic shield which blocks fireballs, magic, sword beams, rocks and spears. Then get in a Like Like and will eat his magic shield and what happens... Link doesn't have a shield at all! (it shows the correct Link tiles) He cannot block anything, even rocks and spears!
I do have the "Don't keep lower level items" unchecked in the Magic Shield properties.
The magic shield, when eaten doesn't switch to small shield! This should be fixed.

Isn't everything working exactly like it's suppose to, then? Since you have that property checked, the magic shield completely replaces the small shield, which then leaves Link with nothing when the magic shield is eaten.
I am going to re-check it out by playing my custom quest and the Original 1st quest. Then I will notify you with an edit of this post. I'll do this quick.
EDIT: Okay. Link does get hurt by the Octorok's rock after his magic shield has taken away by a Like Like in the original 1st quest in ZC. Now I need to verify it in the original NES to see if it matches or not. I will notify you with a next post. [SIZE="1"] Franpa had posted next.[/SIZE]

um, you got confused i think haha, he said that that rule was disabled, thus based on what the rule is called i assume he SHOULD have the small shield.

I'm confused?😕
EDIT: Whoa! Franpa justed said the same thing!
Yes, I was confused; I thought he said the rule was checked. My apologies.
Investigating.
Checked the Original NES too! Link deflects the rock. Verified bug. (and inconsistency)
You got there before me!!!
I'm not seeing this bug; after the Like-like ate my magic shield, the small shield deflected rocks without problems.
Could you please post an example quest? I believe there might be something wrong with your item properties.
This is for ZC Alpha 389.
Created from scratch WITHOUT adjusting item defaults.
Instructions: Deflect rock shot from Octorok first before grabbing the magic shield in the middle. Then go to the room on the right and get eaten by a Like Like. Wait. Quit and continue. Then try deflecting the rock shot from Octorok and you will see this bug.

There are two bugs at play here:
1. "Don't Keep Lower Level Items" should be "Keep Lower Level Items";
2. The magic shield doesn't have this flag set by default.
Both fixed in the next build.
As for b18, I've been agitating for its release for close to a month now. However, as there are still ~2 pages of reported bugs, now doesn't seem like a very good time.
DD, this bug is still in build 403. I was playing a 2.10 quest in the build and I had the magic shield. After it was eaten by a Like Like and I lost it, the small shield was visible on Link but I was not blocking anything.
EDIT: OK, I noticed that this is fixed for the next build. I thought this was set. Will test after the next build is released.
Bug confirmed fixed in build 414. Link can deflect rocks and spears after his magic shield eaten by Like Like. Dead bug. 😊
