Still though.. nonetheless people will go for the same type of shield with all the same effects. I'd rather see people use skill to block incoming damage from a mob or something. You could have the chance to NOT block a mobs big attack...
OR you can have your shield up and reduce some or most of the damage without chance

This would be pretty nice. I agree I dont particularly like the guard skill. Specially that it stops your movement in your tracks.

realistically, isn't it kind of hard to run and keep yourself positioned for a frontal blow with your shield up?

Problem with that is you cant block Specials or ranged attacks. just basic physical melee attacks.
