Invisible shield suggestion?

[CUTS3R]

This has probably been brought up like a million times, but I was just thinking how nice it would be to glamour shields to be invisible. I feel like some PLD swords look way better if there was no visible shield like the Moggle Mogblade. You know like an Emperor's New Shield kind of deal. Just a random thought I had.

I support this idea Lightning glamours will be complete then.

This has been talked about in one of the Live Letters.
In short Yoshida`s answer was "no". Please search for yourself which one was that because I do not remember.

Aww that's too bad. With any luck they might change their minds later down the road or something. Oh well!

More recently when it was brought up again on the forums here a dev response re-affirmed the No answer, but they did say they might consider making a very small shield that may give close to that impression.

[Alpselon]

Ah that's right! I forgot we use the shield for something other than blocking! Well the small shield sounds nice too and I look forward to seeing how that looks!

they will not because : you cannot shield lob, shield bash and shield block w/o a shield

Just because it's invisible doesn't mean the object is not there anymore. Predator could do it and his mass was still there, he speared people all the time while invisible. Hollow Man did all kinds of crazy stuff. The Klingon Bird of Prey crushed a trash can and blocked a harpoon while cloaked.

The ironic part is that the original Bird-of-Prey line couldn't be shielded when cloaked. Nor could it even fire it's weapons!
If a PLD can't block or lob, what good is he!?

But we can throw our shield and have it never leave our arm
