Fatigue for shield?

same then for polearms and 2hands, you can only swing 2 or 3 times till you tire out,
fairness over everything else.

I think this game has too easy system for shielders, it is just turtle, turtle, turtle, turtle, swing, turtle, turtle, turtle, turtle, swing and so on, so i came up with an idea. Shield breakers for shielders, so they can only block certain amount of swings, before their shield gets broken, depending on a) shield skill, b) shield body armor, c) shield hit points.

What do you think?

No.

I don't think everyone wants to run around with an axe or morningstar.

Too much easymode with shields... Str is meaningless if it doesn't even help you drop down some skinny guys shield.

If you don't run around with a shield breaker it will take you a long time to break a shield.... Problem?

Fatigue for blocking with a shield but not for blocking with 2h/1h/pole is incredibly illogical & would make using a shield relatively pointless except against ranged.

Just make greatswords crush through shields, and have polestagger / shield bonus / are throwable / block projectiles / rear horses / can be swung from horseback / can be couched from horseback / can be fired from a crossbow / require less upkeep / give you 50 armour rating when worn with Kuyak.

And why has the shieldbreaker have to be only way?

You have an advantage over shieldbreaking weapons when you use longer, nastier, faster non-shieldbreaking weapons. In return, they get to smash shields.

Alternatively, use a maul.

I mean this would help all classes, EVEN SHIELD VS SHIELD!!

Just tell me, why should shield be uber strong last forever without hitting it with an axe??

Why should shieldbreaking weapons exist if they are weaker then greatswords but are not better at fighting shielders?

The problem is that you want your greatsword to be an effective weapon vs shielders too, which is just unbalanced.
