Can we please do something to make using a shield a lot better? There's so few abilities to use on the revolution bar for using a shield. I can't find anything worth using. I don't know why but I just love the look of a shield. Please make them more usable. Thanks for your time, I never seem to have enough of my own.

No idea. I just think it sucks that there's no good revolution bars for using a shield so clearly there's a problem with them.
I have no idea how to fix the problem or I would have given my suggestions.

It's not a combat style you're supposed to default to. Use it when it's adequate, but do something else when it's not.

Shields do look cool. An obvious thing would be to let us activate 2H weapon abilities while using a shield.

I'm not sure how that would be for balance, or animation problems. But it seems like a fun idea.


Shieldbows certainly do work. And likewise you could use defenders if you want DW and shield abilities at the same time.
