The Riot Shield is an item in Jailbreak and is one of the few items that can protect the player. It is only obtainable if the player owns the SWAT Gamepass, which costs GoldenRobux425.

Overview

The only purpose of the Riot Shield is to protect players from shooting at them. This shield will absorb any bullets, coming at the cost of a 25% reduced speed while holding it. Note, that Riot Shield is not capable of protecting you from explosives. The Riot Shield is not recommended to use when pursuing any targets, but it can prove quite useful when engaging a criminal.

The Riot Shield can also be useful for busting Rising City Bank/Crater City Bank robberies, as the shield will allow players to get into the vault with a low chance of dying if criminals are shooting them. However, players can still die while trying to bust a Bank robbery, either by lasers, or by multiple players shooting at them, especially from behind. Caution is advised when using the Riot Shield for busting bank robberies.

It is also useful when raiding Homes, as Criminals are usually taken by surprise if they are in the building. If they come and you are in the vault, it is useful depending on the House/Apartment. The ones with a narrow hallway before entering the main room are the most useful for a player using the Riot Shield.

Trivia

  • The Riot Shield can be used to perform an underwater speed glitch. To do it, equip a Riot Shield when underwater. Then, you can walk incredibly fast, while still holding the Riot Shield. This glitch is similar to the now removed Snowman/Penguin glitch.
  • Contrary to popular belief, riot shields aren't supposed to be used for apprehending heavily armed suspects nor are they used for SWAT operations, like apprehending a barricaded suspect. As their name implies, riot shields are meant for riots, where the main source of danger comes from thrown projectiles, such as rocks and other debris. Some shields are able to stop low-caliber rounds like pistols but are unable to stop higher calibers, like rifles.
    • A more accurate form of a shield that would be able to stop bullets are ballistic shields, as these are usually made with the same material as kevlar vests.
  • This item can be found here on the Roblox catalog.
    • When holding the shield on the Roblox Catalog, it appears to be sideways.
  • Prisoners can get the Riot Shield by joining the police team and getting the item, then going their cell, and storing the shield in a drawer. Then, the player can switch to a prisoner and go to the drawer that they stored the shield in and retrieve it.
  • Attempting to pick this item up as a prisoner or criminal will give them a message, "This is for police only." This is also shared for the SWAT gear and SWAT pistols.
