(also not a fan of shield main-hand)Are you kidding me... Are you a fan of Cestus? Having a main hand shield would open up warriors to being the closest thing to having "fist to cuffs". Also having Warriors with the professional mechanic Protect would open up warriors to be more "Tanky" where they actually have to be focused on positioning between foes and allies taking the brunt of the damage and especially once they have the added barrier. Their version of punishment skills would also be great way to debuff foes in a creative way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially since shield off had skills for warrior would compliment the main hand skills just fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
