OP Legio or why do you need MP?

 archer classes had same Power Draw, but different approaches to defence (being ability to run faster, wearing heavier armour, having more hp or even ability to equip shield).
...

I don't understand why ranger gets any shielding skill if it cannot equip even somewhat halfway decent shields (if there is even a shield it can equip at all). Would be nice if it could even bring in an sks honestly.

Even pikeman has shields available.

Years ago you could bring in some market place ones but even now we have access to 0.


The war in 2013-2014 of me asking if ranger could use sks was lost sorry.

That's actually tragic. Would be nice to even get something a bit worse than the sks, it's got the skill so would be nice if it could at least bring in something to utilise it.  I just saw sentinel also gets shielding (although 1 less than ranger), but I can't understand why it would need it if there is no access to any shields for archers... It wouldn't need to be crazy or overpowered, but something at all would be nice :/

It would be interesting, although its "canonicity" would break a little.

I think I would even make a Ranger if he had his own shield.

I mean, you have a point there I suppose. But it's not like archers were forbidden from bringing shields onto the battlefield and whatnot. And in terms of being overpowered, I doubt that would happen. I mean, if they got access to anything at all, that would be nice, it wouldn't have to be something good that would allow an archer to replace a shielder, but something small for personal defence would be nice. A small shield with fairly low hp would work just fine in my opinion. It just doesn't really make much sense to me why they get shielding skill at all at the moment. I mean sure they can pick up shields off the ground but I'm not sure that's a good reason to justify having these skill points in the first place.
That being said with the current system an archer can only bring in 3 weapons. A bow and arrows would be 2, and picking between a sword or shield for a ranger might not work too well on the system we have right now, as most would probably prefer to bring in a sword for obvious reasons.

We have sks? my life is completed. Speedrun real life as well as mario :o

still sad
