Jacko headshotted me the other day OVER my board shield on Port Assault, from the boat on the right of the right hand pier... I was on the pier. He was LOWER than me, I had my shield raised, and he shot me IN THE HEAD. Obviously that took skill, but if you had a board shield raised and were facing someone lower than you, you would be confused. Inb4 low shield skill, mine is 6. Inb4 Xant calls me noob, stfu.

It's annoying shooting at those guys as they come towards you, and have their bucklers catch your arrows even if you aim at their heads and knees, so then they can just spam kill you afterwards. My point was, there are plenty of shields that look like they can catch arrows, why should bucklers be the same...

They are Tier 6 shields. If they were really that small in the forcefield, then they would have to be tier 1 or 2 for being so bloody useless.
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.
The terror of my reign will live on in infamy, singing when they die like a dead man's symphony.
