in Feedback and Suggestions
Should it cause a longer stun time when used with a shield? Should the cooldown be reduced when using a shield? Should the defend radius be increased when using the shield?

I like to see shield use become necessary or at least considered instead of just frowned on when the meta is just damage Damage DAMAGE.
"The buff range is extremely small; you must be almost on top of the Defending player to obtain the bonus from the defense skill." This should get a serious buff when the defending player is using a shield.

Make warriors become able to choose between being the assault or being a guardian.

    I understand the idea but doesn't the Shield Mastery skill already kinda make the use of a shield better than not using one?

    It did but not enough.
