The effect of [[Hard Shield Belt]] (Green)  is "Harden". it provides a temporary orange coloured shield that works similarly to a regular Shield Belt.
 
The effect of Reflect Shield Belt (Pink) is "Omni Reflect". It emits a purple-pink aura around the player that reflects all bullets away. (It's a little buggy with [[Beam Gun]]).
 
The effect of Stun Shield Belt (Yellow) is "Omni Stun". It provides a yellow aura around the player that 'stuns' projectiles, absorbing them with no damage done to the player.
 
Shield Belts are weak against heat. All weapons that produce heat are good against Shield Belts, this includes [[Plasma|Plasma Weapons]], [[Beam Gun]], [[Blaster Gun]], Thermal Launcher and throwables [[Thermal Bomb]], [[Molotov]], Dynamite, Chemical Vial(?), [[Klonk]] and [[Nitrogen Grenade]].
