Thats like saying "Nicest child rapist". How come I cant use force-push and jedi mind control? Shielders have the only truly incredible and unrealistic factor in this mod: Forcefields. Putting loads of points into PD or WPF into archery doesnt mean I can hit enemies even when I aim badly, why should shieldskill give the abilty to redirect arrows??

To be fair, putting points in shield does not give a shielder the ability to threaten almost everyone on the battlefield like a range weapon does, nor does using a shield allow him to jump from 120% headshot damage to 210%.

Both classes allow you to do stupid shit, and damn near every class can be considered EZ mode or unrealistic if I present the right arguements. How about cavalry doing massive vaults even with plated chargers? How about c-rpg longbowmen having a higher rate of fire then RL counterparts? How about Long Spears overheading? List goes on.
I'm not normal and I don't pretend so, my approach is pretty much a bomb crescendo.
Death is a fun way to pass the time though, several little bullets moving in staccato.

Yes.  Blaton was a good guy.

Unlike that Balton douche whom we're lucky to be rid of.
And I should be nice or polite to anyone.... why exactly?

I wish. Real life called, it said you should do a little research before inane typing. A welsh or english archer in his mid twenties can fire arrows off every 5 seconds when needed. Tiring, and innacurate, but rate of fire is there. Now, I would love for archery to take a realism hit: MUCH more innacurate at anything past 100 yards, slightly longer reloads, but when your shot full in chest in anything but plate, your dead (unable to fight: dead/disabled/unconscious). In plate a longbow strike in chest should knockdown, since they did when the arrowhead was not a bodkin: Also the ability to pick which arrow to use with each shot, bodkins for plate and broadheads for mail and less. So, realism is NOT an issue, I agree, but if it was shields would require skill to use rather than just holding rightmouse.
Bamboo Bundle Bowman: 90'' draw, groups at 200 yards.

Wait, arrows knocking down guys? Source? Now that I am interested in reading about.

5 seconds is a long time man, no expert on the subject but I don't think longbowmen in cRPG shoot that slow. Funny that when I google 'longbow firing speed', the fourth hit is cRPG and most of the others are other RPG's.

Yup, you can fire 18 times per minute in c-rpg with a longbow. A little over 3 seconds per shot. Shooting 50% faster then what is possible in real life seems kinda... a big deal for superhuman qualities. I have never heard of any military bow being fired faster then once every 4 second, and certainly not for large powerful bows like your 5 second longbow.
If you get a machine gun bow, then I get a forcefield shield.
Real life called, it said you should do a little research before inane typing.
Yes I laughed at the overwhelming irony.

For a guy who says "research" I was amused. *shrugs* Apparently he researched the RL thing but not what the game does.

Still, even if he is full of shit on that, I still want to hear more of this "knocking down people with arrows" as using the average velocity of a longbow and the average mass of a clothyard shaft, I am not seeing all that much to knock down a stationary 180lb man wearing 40 more lbs of armour and gear with every shot, though certainly I can see staggers.

My google fu also failed me on finding reputable sources on knocking people down with arrows without penetration.
