{{clr}}


==In ''[[Mega Man Maker]]''==
It is an aerial enemy that will continuously fly until it is near the [[Characters|player character]]. When it is nearby, it will fly downwards in an arc and will drop three fireballs that become flame pillars once they make contact with the ground. It will then fly upwards until it is off-screen.


===Behavior===
It can be set to move left or right in the [[Level Builder]], and can be set to either be blue, or yellow. The blue variant's flames are yellow, while the yellow variant's flames are blue.
When the player is more than 4 tiles away horizontally from Shield Cannon, it will be in its "passive state" where a protective shielding will cover the cannon barrel and protect it from most damage.


When the player is 4 tiles away horizontally from Shield Cannon or less, it will be in its "aggressive state" where the protective shielding will slide away revealing the cannon barrel and will fire two large cannonballs at the player, then briefly covers the cannon barrel with its protective shielding for a few seconds, before looping back to his first behavior firing two cannonballs again if the player is still close to it. The Shield Cannon is vulnerable to damage when its cannon barrel is exposed.


When the player is more than 4 tiles away horizontally from Shield Cannon when it is in its "aggressive state", it will return to its "passive state" after firing its most recent barrage of two cannonballs. Shield Cannon's cannonballs can be destroyed by attacking them or deflected by [[Shine]] or [[Proto Man]]'s Shield. The [[Needle Cannon]] weapon can destroy a Cannon in one hit.
===[[Level Builder]]===
Shield Cannon can be selected to face either left or right in the [[Level Builder]]; however, due to the way its AI functions, its manual facing direction is redundant, having no effect on how the enemy moves or attacks.
