Change to Commando

Sometimes I shield, sometimes I slash, sometimes I heal...
If your only job is to make a shieldwall and stand here for ages, then shielder class would be so booooooriiiiiiiing.

Disagree.

      An archers job is to shoot, or if they have an assist class to put a Barricade or Heal on occasion. A crossbowman's job is to be mediocre at melee with 1 handers and shoot since they are limited to 4 items they are not very good to bring support weapons. A pikeman's job is to slash or throw and they are fast healers or can be quick deploying engineers. A pikeman on the other hand is balanced out by having the worst armor possible. The commando on the other hand has the best of all worlds but ranged, but who needs ranged when you can shield or be behind a shield? A commando can slash if he wants to, shield and protect the team, be an engineer or healer, and best of all he has the strongest armor in the game. Why should one class be the most over powering of all of them? Oh and also do not forget you can customize your class with different choices made through leveling up and choosing which tier you get next. So you can form a hybrid to do multiple things instead of just having one class that does it all.

This will have a great decrease on shielders. Which in turn will NOT promote teamwork because there isn't any shielders. DISAGREE.

        Well if there are no shielders then someone would have to become one. This would cause people to, if they want to get far, contribute to the team. Some people like shielding (surprisingly enough) and these people would be helpful to the team. It would be the same as no one wanting to be full time healer but becoming one anyways to help the team.

It could work if you give alot more protection and the best armors available with strong shields that holds thousands(yes you read it right) of Nords without needing to repair; to the new shielder class. And leave the new commando with medium armors since they will be damage dealers already (%90 of the players choose to be a damage dealer in online rpg games, hence 10 commandos trying to slash while the team's needing only 1 shielder more in current games in NI...)

      Most of the games I play I see everyone with extra Royal Shields so many that the ground is littered with them and when I do not see that it is only because I am playing on a normal server with a bunch of tier 1 and tier 2 footmen. I had thought about the shielders having more armor but the problem is if they already have a shield why do they need amazing armor to go with it?  Also if they held off thousand of nords with one shield it would make the waves too easy and we would not want that now would we?
