The Glass Shield is a piece of light armor and part of the Glass Armor set found in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim.
Locations[]
Unenchanted shields will begin to appear throughout Skyrim at level 36 and enchanted variants can be found at level 37. On rare occasions, however, the enchanted variants can be found at as low as level 25. These locations include:
- Blacksmiths and General Goods Merchants.
- Found as random loot in chests.
Fixed locations[]
- Worn by several Thalmor Soldiers and archers in Northwatch Keep after level 36.
Smithing[]
A Glass Shield requires a Smithing level of 70 and the Glass Smithing perk to create. It can be forged at a blacksmith's forge with the following components:
- 4 × Refined Malachite
- 1 × Refined Moonstone
- 2 × Leather Strips
It can be upgraded with a Refined Malachite at a workbench and also benefits from the Glass Smithing perk, which doubles the improvement.
