Buddha players, especially in Buddha versus Buddha duels.

Good to know
- The boss
Captain Elephant visually wears the Jaw Shield, but he does not drop it on death and gets no bonus from it. - Some players find the description misleading, since the item only covers the head and not the whole body. The +10% Melee defense still proves them partly right.
- Since
Update 29, it is the accessory with the biggest Melee damage boost in the game, because the
Dojo Belt (Black) bonuses were readjusted. - Added to the game in Update 15.
Strengths and weaknesses
- Huge mobility gain: +50% movement speed
- A decent damage AND defense boost on the same accessory, which is rare
- Excellent for Buddha players, precisely because of that damage plus defense combo, and especially useful in Buddha versus Buddha duels
- Since Update 29, the best Melee damage bonus in the game
- Clearly less interesting if you mostly play
Blox Fruits,
Swords or
Guns: the damage bonus only applies to Melee
Our take
Excellent for a Melee or Buddha main; somewhat less relevant in Fruit, Sword, or Gun builds.
