petition to return the glad block ability

[syntaxlies]

This. I think it's hilarious that the OP wishes to have the flawed blocking mechanism "fixed" by reinstating a bad mechanic that was removed for a reason just so he can have his block rate back. Fixing things by breaking them, only in a different way, must be the least innovative way to change things imaginable.

Anyway, I don't really like the way the shield works in general. You don't have to time anything, or think for that matter, as long as you just keep rotating your shield skills. Pre 1.18 the abilities were very impactful, which is how it should be, however, the constant rotation took away the need to time them carefully. I think they were intended to be panic buttons but instead you could just keep them going indefinitely.

you obsly didnt read that much of the thread. i would like to have guard back in exchange of what we have now. i have said at least once that i wouldn't mind an auto block system that works, but given what we have now or what we had before id take what we had before.

I read the entire thread. And yes, you did say you wouldn't mind an auto-block that works more reliably, however, you completely failed to even mention this option in your original post. Clearly this idea never even crossed your mind when you started the thread, so you actually wanted to fix blocking specifically by bringing back the old guard and a near 100% block rate when a shield ability is active.
