CrownFire Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 (edited) I see a lot of single swords and people saying they need a buff or something. Along those lines I really like the sword and board idea. Just looks cool if done right and comes with neat things like shield bash and such. My idea is a new secondary weapon, a shield. While you have your sheild/secondary out you will also draw your sword. I'm sure devs can add stuff like shield bash and multi strike with charge attacks. EDIT: zombies!~ Block would have a function!~ EDIT #2: So far we have -Shield using primary slot and using pistol with melee swap out for sword(Large shield classification) -Shield using secondary with a single pistol toggle out to melee weapon and still maintaining the single primary alone.(Small shield classification.) -Some people say Riot/Ballistic Shield while I think the classic Kite shield appearance is pretty neat and would mesh well with the Tenno feel. -Rhino synergy bonus -Shield combine blueprints? Making a shield/sword set? Edited June 21, 2013 by CrownFire Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PadaPanda Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 This is actually a great idea, i like it. But this might goes more medival then ninja. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VScipii26 Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 This is actually a great idea, i like it. But this might goes more medival then ninja. I am a bright pink Rhino with three shotguns and a greataxe. I think we're safe to deviate from ninjas. That said, if a shield were to be outside of a melee slot, I'd rather see it take up the primary weapon slot. Why? Lex and Shield. Furis and Shield. It would still have the option of machete and shield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even better! But you'd have to make it so that using a shield and primary weapon would be impossible. You would have to sling it onto your back when using your shotgun or gorgon.

Hezekiah Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 I wouldn't mind anything like this at all +1 Although Maybe just a shield as a primary melee weapon, Cap Style Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lady_Khaos Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 I'm all for it, as long as it doesn't look like a riot shield (a big rectangle). Maybe more diamond shaped, or even all angled surfaces to deflect incoming fire rather than just stopping it. Possibly even an energy/holographic shield. I'd love to charge forward with a shield, plowing through groups of enemies, stunning all of them. XD However, making it take the primary while using a pistol would not work with the current setup, since you can't exactly have both out...they would have to figure out how to code it to be permanantly equipped.

You can't. 2) State a reason why ninjas and shields clashing has anything to do with Warframe and Tenno. 3) I am a bright pink Rhino. My primary weapon is an automatic shotgun. My second is a pair of dual shotgun handcannons. The melee is a greataxe. EXPLAIN TO ME HOW WE'RE ALL NINJAS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrownFire Posted June 21, 2013 Author Share Posted June 21, 2013 (edited) I want an elegant gold leafed lotus etched kite shield!~ Edit: and maybe a flail/mace/morningstar/stun rod with lethal damage....

Reichmar Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Not sure about putting shields into the game... at least in the way you're describing. If anything the Grineer ballistic shield could be put in as a melee weapon (possibly removing primary weapons when equipped). No, I would rather have uses for block than adding a new thing to block with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iceciro Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 I think i'd rather see the shields as a weapon option; just like you can build Skana, Dual Skana, you could also build Skana and Shield. I'd also like to see a riot shield like the Grineer troops have, that I can fire my pistol innaccurately over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Giant_Blade Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 You know shields can thrown too, right? So make it that using shields give you 100% damage reduction when blocking any attack except shockwaves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boxyninja Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 i am a more of a shield guy so i must love this idea. hate to say this but do something like cod where u have it as ur primary and u can still use ur secondary or melee wep while holding the shield. obviously it would have to be single handed weps. i would also support the option of building sword and shield for a melee slot. now we could make the shield like the jackles from halo where if you block too much you will have to wait for it to regen and it will regen while in combat. imagine a rhino with a shield while the iron skin taunt is up XD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
