In Monopoly Go, your principal Goal is to complete the board with different themes by building various different landmarks and upgrading them, and get the ultimate reward. You have a lot of ways to make money in the game, and this money can be invested in your property on the board, so that you can be at the top of the overall list.
But your road to wealth is not smooth sailing. In Monopoly Go, the opponent player can directly close your property, and so can you. When you land on the railway tile, it triggers the close function, which allows you to make huge profits by destroying the opponent’s buildings.
When the opponent starts to attack your board, this is where Monopoly Go shields come in handy. They protect your buildings from the opponent’s ruthless attacks, saving a lot of money. In addition, the shield can also prevent the opponent player from launching a robbery at your bank, and you can even demolish the opponent’s buildings.
So where can you get such a useful thing? Don’t worry, this guide will explain how to get and use these shields in Monopoly Go. In addition, they will also have their own various skins for you to choose from.
What Is A Shield?
In Monopoly Go, shields are used as a passive measure to defend against attacks from other players on the board. This means that you can’t choose to turn them on actively, but they will automatically turn on when your landmark is attacked by other players.
Whenever other players try to destroy a landmark, they will use a shield, otherwise your landmark will be damaged and downgraded. You need to note that shields are disposable and cannot be reused, and you can only equip three at a time. So be sure to repair your landmarks in time to prevent a second downgrade.
How To Get A Shield?
There are many ways to get shields in Monopoly Go. You can use the following methods.
Participate In Events
Not only can you get a lot of rewards in various events, but you can also collect some shields in events. In addition, you can also win more cool shield skins in the milestones of the event.
Complete Quick Wins Tasks
Completing Quick Wins Tasks is the easiest and fastest way to get shields in this board game. These missions are very simple and you can complete them in a normal game. In addition to the shield and its skin, you can also get some extra rewards, such as dice rolls and Monopoly Go Cards packs.
Some players may wonder what specific tasks there are and whether you need to cooperate to complete them? Don’t worry, most of the tasks require you to land on certain tiles or get a certain amount of cash on your mobile phone. You don’t need your friends at all, you can complete them on your own.
However, it should be noted that not every reward you get may include a shield, so you need to make multiple attempts above level 35 to increase your chances of winning.
Collecting Shields From Tiles
You can also collect shields from tiles as the game progresses. These shields are scattered all over your board. You just need to land on a tile with a shield after rolling the dice to get it.
When you pick up a shield, the next new shield will appear on a different tile. These shields will automatically equip your landmarks after you pick them up, protecting your buildings from destruction.
How To Get Shield Skins?
Shield skins are a seasonal thing in Monopoly Go, which means you can only unlock new skins during some seasonal events. Because of their rarity, they are worth collecting.
You can find the corresponding shield skins in the rewards you get for completing each seasonal event. Additionally, with the extra dice you have before, you can also use a little strategy on the board to land repeatedly on tiles with shield skins.
And you can also get shield skins for weekly rewards. This will also accumulate points for your milestones, allowing you to complete the points goals of each stage of the milestone as soon as possible.
Not only will weekly events provide you with a variety of shield skins, but daily sign-in rewards will also give you a chance to get it. Although this skin has no function other than decoration, collecting different shield skins on your phone can bring you great satisfaction and collection rewards. It’s worth it!
How To Equip A Shield Skin?
When you get a new shield skin in Monopoly Go, you’ll be asked if you want to use it right away or send it to Showroom. To change it later, follow these steps:
- Select the three lines in the top right corner of the Monopoly Go screen
- Click My Showroom
- Go to Shields section
- Equip the shield you want to use
In Showroom, you’ll see all the shields, emojis, and board markers you’ve unlocked and can change them at any time.
So how many shields are equipped on your Monopoly Go board now? Should you check your buildings? Hopefully, your building will be intact and your possessions will grow!
