Me and my friend are trying to play together on the same router. we keep both getting disconnected from server. Any idea if this is due to us playing on the same connection? its sort of really annoying.

Try using lighter armor, like tunic over mail or comparable light armor.
Your weapon loadout is OK as it is the jack-of-all-trades approach. I personally don't do that, but that is just my own preference.

I highly suggest you play on whatever servers you have the lowest ping to, be it NA or EU, and duel quite a bit. There are certain timings that you can only learn through playing. If you can get together with a competent shielder, they generally will teach you as most people are nice and were taught partially by other people themselves.

so i bought the heraldric mail w/ surcoat and i'm seeing sort of a difference. Is this a good choice? Or should I go lighter?

18/18 build is fine so is 142 wpf, your weapon load is pretty much what I carry.  You should also be using a huscarl shield, if you are not you should look into it.  Otherwise this means that you must be making mistakes because you do not know how the dynamics of melee work in this game.  Read my posts in that thread, the last post in that thread will alone help you a ton. 

Cheers,

I did they were very helpful. Just still feels like I swing...so....slow...

Also I play on both. I got a very solid connection so I just sort of roam around the servers where ever.

I am pretty sure this is your problem.
Heavier armor on shielders is not very good, as it slows you down to the molasses you are describing. Your shield should be the heavy armor you need, y'know?
Also, are you carrying more than one shield? other heavy things? What is your shield skill, wpf, etc?

Are you waiting to hear the sound of their weapon hitting your shield or are you getting hit by feints, etc?
What shield/weapon are you using? There are a lot of questions here as to what you may be (or are) doing wrong. We need more info than this to help you.

my 1h wpf is 142 ish. I'm carrying three weapons for situation purposes. Nordic champ sword for 2h spammers, iron war ax for shielders,  and warhammer for other heavily armored units. my shield is a huscarls shield as it seemed like the best choice. Fients tend to destroy me because im a newer player but its just frusterating getting killed in 2 hits because armor is suppose to do something right?

So im almost to my first lvl 31 and I built  18/18 str agi balanced 1h shield build...and I get destroyed every time. I don't know what im doing wrong. My guy swings like molasses and I can only take 1-2 hits in TRANSITIONAL. mostly due to 2h spam. Is shield build even viable anymore?
