Reduce Shield Requirement By 1?

This would make shields accessible to many more people I think, and there might be less QQ about ranged.

Make shield difficulty based on strength like melee weapons.

Change difficulty for shield skill to strength - OK.

But!

change difficulty for Power Throw to agi - to balance things out.

I don't care if people QQ about ranged.  It's easy enough to deal with as is.  If you want to charge archers either get a heavy horse, a shield, or stand behind either of them.  Otherwise, accept that you've limitations.

Wouldn't dedicated shielders still invest in shield skill, which is based on agility?

And give people another reason to stack strength over agi? No thanks.

The whole premise of this thread seems to be to make things easier on STR stackers... So they can carry a nice shield with 9 AGI?

I can live with shields based on str if devs finally buff throwing.

I think changing power throw to be based on agi should balance throwing to be viable again. (and I am talking about pure throwing, not another hybrid bullshit)
