The correct answer is 'Option 2' i.e. 'Warrior have been one'.Key Points

The error lies in the subject-verb agreement in the second part of the sentence.
"Warrior" is a singular noun, so the verb "have" should be changed to its singular form, which is "has."
Therefore, the correct sentence is: 'The shield used by the warrior has been one made of strong iron.'
