==Description==
Shielded Octotroopers appear identical to [[Octotrooper]]s or [[Twintacle Octotrooper]]s, but are equipped with an impenetrable shield that is similar in appearance to a welding mask. They possess an exposed backside which can be [[ink]]ed to defeat them. Shielded Octotroopers will also rotate to watch [[Agent 3]], making them only vulnerable if the player sneaks up behind them, or distracts them with a [[Sub Weapon]].

However, in [[Octo Canyon (mode)|Octo Canyon]], Return of the Mammalians and the ''[[Octo Expansion]]'', their shields can be destroyed instead of having to distract them with any type of [[sub weapon]]s.

To defeat Shielded Octarians, they must be distracted, making them turn around and show their vulnerable side.

It is also possible to simply sneak around through ink while in squid form, as they are unable to notice.

Ya can't hit those shielded Octojerks from the front!

Shielded Octotroopers are Octarian fighters. They use shields to protect themselves from attacks.

Description

Shielded Octotroopers appear identical to Octotroopers but are equipped with a shield that is similar in appearance to a welding mask. They possess an exposed backside which can be inked to defeat them. Shielded Octotroopers will also rotate to watch the player, making them only vulnerable if the player sneaks up behind them, or distracts them with a sub weapon. In Octo Valley, the shield is impenetrable. However, in Octo Canyon, Return of the Mammalians and the Octo Expansion, their shields can be destroyed instead of having to distract them with any type of sub weapons.

Tips

  • In Splatoon, to defeat Shielded Octarians, they must be distracted, making them turn around and show their vulnerable side. Distracting them with bombs is an easy method as they will turn around in surprise. While no longer necessary to defeat them in Splatoon 2, it is still the most effective way to defeat them.
  • In Splatoon 2, it is possible to destroy their shields with brute force, though this should only be done if absolutely necessary, as their shields are very durable.
  • Hitting a Shielded Octotrooper at the right angle to ignore the shield entirely can also be done, though it usually requires precise aim. It is most easily done with the Hero Slosher.
  • It is also possible to simply sneak around through ink while in squid or octopus form, as they are unable to notice.
  • In Splatoon 2, using a blaster is one of the best ways to defeat one. Just fire slightly above them and let the splash damage do its work.
  • In Splatoon 3, throwing Smallfry at Shielded Octotroopers will damage their shield over time and make them spin wildly (exposing their vulnerable backs).
