Simple Fix to PLD

[Sasagawa]

Shield Stance: nothing more than a persistent outmanuever effect, increased block rate, but reduces acc/attk, your focus shifts to keeping your shield up so your attacks are coming from a less weapon friendly place.

We had this in original release.

Shield would go up and glad would stop attacking for a little while and simply absorb damage. was a good trait and I enjoyed it but people complained about not having auto block so it was removed.

Yeah I remember that, I did NOT like that implementation, having to mash block over and over was annoying, almost as annoying as the pre AA 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 2 3 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 4 1 1 1 1 1 fight process.
I mean they should be stances not unlike Cleric Stance or a MNKs fists stances.

Well, it only lasted for a short time but yeah you had control over when you could block, a big part of the problem was input lag and server lag. I personally would have preferred a toggle (hit once to put shield up, again to put shield down, no time limits but less DPS)
