'''Shielded Hoodbooms''' are a stronger version of [[Hoodboom]]s found only in [[Rayman 3 (Game Boy Advance)|the Game Boy Advance version of ''Rayman 3'']], specifically in [[Hoodlum Hideout]].
'''Shielded Hoodbooms''' are a variation of [[Hoodboom]]s found only in [[Rayman 3 (Game Boy Advance)|the Game Boy Advance version of ''Rayman 3'']], specifically in [[Hoodlum Hideout]].


They appear as [[Hoodboom]]s' heads on [[Grim Keeper]]s' bodies. They have a notable string of [[plum juice|Molotov cocktails]] around their bodies, as Hoodbooms do. Usually, they are found carrying massive shields around, made out of either wood or metal. When they are defeated, they seemingly melt into the ground.
They wear an outfit very similar to that of the [[Grim Keeper]]s, though with distinctive [[Hoodboom]]s' heads. They have a notable string of [[plum juice]] jugs around their bodies, as [[Hoodboom]]s do. They are much weaker than their [[Hoodboom|regular counterparts]], which is counterbalanced by the massive shields they carry around, made out of either wood or metal. When they are defeated, they seemingly melt into the ground.


==Wooden shields==
==Wooden shields==


The weakest variety of Shielded Hoodboom can only be found in the first part of [[Hoodlum Hideout]]. They carry flimsy, wooden shields that, unlike [[Grim Keeper]]s', can be destroyed in two punches. Once the shield is destroyed, the hapless [[Hoodlum]] carries on throwing Molotov cocktails. With his shield gone, this Hoodlum needs only one hit to be killed. There are only four of these in the game and are usually the first Hoodlum [[Rayman]] has to fight.

==Metal shields==
==Metal shields==


The most powerful variant of Shielded Hoodboom, the ones with metal shields only appear in the second part of [[Hoodlum Hideout]]. They wear bright orange instead of red and green. They carry reinforced metal shields that [[Rayman]] cannot destroy. As they block all of Rayman's shots, a different approach is needed; Rayman must shoot the lower part of the [[Hoodlum]]'s torso to make it stop blocking its head or to hit the head first, attacking its torso when it is visible. Rayman must hit the Hoodlum twice anywhere in order for it to be defeated. There are only four of these in the whole game.
