The Shield System

[Falcus]

funnily enough i like how it works right now :s

only thing i don't like is that the animation always screws up on me, so i can't see that my shield is up.
which can get annoying because i sometimes go for a while without realising that i need to raise my shield again.

I too like the way the shield works to be honest, for me it makes tanking more involved.

I would like to see a fix put in that prevents the "dropping of your shield arm" from interrupting abilities. Also if you are running around in battle mode, your character will stop when Guard drops. It shouldn't do that either really, the dropping of guard should be seamless.

Ah yeah, and the guard up animation would be a nice fix too, like Falcus mentioned
