With the companion rework, the shield values of our beloved cats, dogs, and drones were brought more in-line with our frames.
However, most companions still use the default Sheild type, making their shields significantly weaker than the Tenno Sheilds our frames enjoy.
Seems a shame for us Tenno to keep the shield tech all to ourselves, while our half-brained pets clearly need it more than we do.
Why not give companions Tenno Sheilds too?
