Shield Tech is a material panel from Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days. It also can be found as Shield Tech+ and Shield Tech++. Shield Techs are primarily used to produce Ability Panels, although a few Ring Panels also call for Shield Techs as an ingredient.
Design
All three types of Shield Tech are represented by dark blue panels adorned with the same symbol. The symbol is comprised of eight triangles of various sizes, four arranged in a diamond-shape in the center of the panel, and one in each corner of the panel. A basic Shield Tech has an orange symbol, a Shield Tech+ is white, and a Shield Tech++ is yellow. Shield Tech materials have a unique structure.
The material's name is a clear reference to its primary use in synthesizing Ability Panels used to supplement the Block ability.
