Seal: Damage Reflected When Guarding

Back to Home - All Weapon Seals

Damage Reflected When Guarding is a weapon seal in Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity. While the player is holding ZL to guard, the seal causes a percentage of the damage blocked to be reflected.

Because the [Hair-Width Trial] challenges are coded with immense amounts of damage per hit rather than low player health to achieve the one-hit player KO result, using a weapon with Damage Reflected When Guarding in these trials will one-hit KO the bosses (as long as the player guards at the right time).

Shape: Square

Can appear randomly on dropped weapons: No

As a hidden seal: Only one tier (20%), not affected by seal matching

Note: A weapon receives a +5 damage buff from having any two weapon seals of the same suit, a +15 damage buff from having any four seals of the same suit, and a total +20 damage buff for having stacks of four seals in one suit and two seals in a different suit. Six seals of the same suit will only give a +15 damage buff. Therefore, if you wish to plan your weapon build in advance, it is important to know the hidden seals of your chosen weapon.
