Please make shield oath sustain through death like monk fist buffs do

[ColeSlawter]

Shield oath most likely does not persist because mp is needed to activate. Raise during battle and pld needs to wait for regen to apply again. Fists do not. That said, I think it should stay up. I'd suggest eliminate the mp cost but that opens the door to pld changing between shield and sword constantly for increased dps.

Any good Paladin is already doing that though. You switch to Shield Oath when you need to grab and hold aggro, but you switch to Sword Oath to increase DPS done.

But I agree that the most likely reason this is not already a feature is because of MP being a resource for skill activation. If that is the case, should Defiance not disappear upon death then? Seeing as it costs no resources to use.

Defiance doesn't need MP and still has to be reapplied.
