Shielded enemies (Snortoise and Boarilla) can be forced out of hiding with the Anvil Strike (Forging Hammer), Pyre Poker (Pith Pike), or meteor summoned by the Inferno Staff, while both Darts' powerups are useless. The Living Staff and Tome of Petrification can also be used, by forcing them to be immobilized (mobs can only have one status at a time, and being immobilized pushes out "hiding").

This is not true, the molten darts special breaks guard, but the living staff sleep does not.
