- This article is about the shield. For the weapon that uses the shield as protection, see Rainmaker (weapon). For the mode it is used in, see Rainmaker.
The Rainmaker shield, or Rainmaker barrier, is a protective bubble surrounding the Rainmaker. Players must attack the shield to pop it and reach the Rainmaker weapon. As the player attacks it, the Rainmaker shield grows in size and changes to the player's ink color. Attacking a shield enlarged by enemy ink shrinks it back towards its neutral state; thus, if opposing players are dealing equal damage to the shield, no progress is made. After enough damage is dealt to the shield by one team, it explodes and releases a blast of ink that is lethal to any member of the opposing team who is standing too close, dealing 900 damage. Players of either team may then pick up the unshielded Rainmaker regardless of which team popped its shield. A player touching the Rainmaker shield receives 10.0 damage every three frames.
If a player carrying the Rainmaker falls out of bounds or into the water, or if the Rainmaker is left untouched for too long after the shield is broken, the Rainmaker shield always respawns in its original state in the center of the map.

The Rainmaker shield has 1000 HP, but many weapon types have a damage multiplier applied when they hit the shield. The multiplier values are detailed in the tables below.
Roller-type weapons such as the Splat Roller or Inkbrush cannot deal any damage to the shield by rolling towards it.
