Then my friend, which class you'd be; a 2hander slasher with best damage output and with best armors, or an ordinary shielder who only have his/her shield with mediocre armors? Answer this honestly please. For an example me, who also shield most of the time when playing because of lack of shielders in-game in hard mode or normal mode; i will chose 2hander class over that shielder of yours. And other 8 commandos out of 10 who can shield right now with current commando class too,
because they are already not shielding even while having kite shields over their shoulders and even after seeing their shielders dead; they just keep slashing till everybody in team is dead... Its all slash-slash-slash for commandos already. At least right now there are few people who shield because they can with current commando class.
If you dont give that new shielder class something he/she can chose over new damage-dealer commando, he/she wont chose it no matter what. In my example, that's better defence than others. He is a shielder; a defender so isnt it more suitable to have most defence out of all classes? Also why should a 2hander damage dealer get best armors too? (lol) Where is the balance in that? It just sounds like you want your favourite 2hander damage dealer class with best armors out there to be playable in NI
.
I would make my main a Commando slasher because he has a heavy warhammer, is a medic and has a res tome. I would make my 1 alt a shielder because I like helping the team also I made a royal shield for the exact purpose as shielding and helping the team. My main problem with the current commando is they have too much power and are the 2 hand damage dealer class that can also be a 1 handed hide in a corner shielder.

Yup, i agree with commandos already being more powerful than other (melee) classes; hence thats why i've suggested pikeman class to have equal armor values as commandos somewhere around here. I still want defenders and slashers being 2 different classes other than being 1 united class, but to seperate them you need to give shielders something more than a shield. (Maybe turning autoblocking off can be good enough reason to pick shields over 2handed weapons, but i hate manual blocking and its not very suitable for NI )

Commando seem to be the most used and overpowering class so why not make them slightly harder to play as?
We could reduce their stats all round.

Only if Nords' speed also will be reduced .
