In truth you only need shields for arrows/javs, and any shield off the ground does well enough for that. Maybe if you were using teamwork, you wouldn't get mobbed by so many enemies that you need a shield to block all their attacks. When coordinated properly, you won't run into this problem. Teamwork.
Besides, your shield is going to break, and you will need to pick up a new one. Why not start with a picked up shield? You say this like "it's just a choice, it should be there" but really, the choice of that fourth slot takes away most of the incentive away for support item
i suggested a 5th slot only for support wy? because having 3 slots burden players options with and create lesser options and lesser options means lesser tactics can be done and with lesser tactics less reason and usage for teamwork. having a 5th slot for support only (and the other 4 for weapons and shields) would enable the player for more tactics without hindering the chance to use support.

You are obviously a two-hander. You ask if I read what you wrote and the answer is yes. Have you read anything I have said? Your whole argument is based on the fact that YOU don't need\want that fourth slot and YOU think that YOU know how the mod should be played by each person. While I do encourage teamwork, if I should choose to take on the berzerker wave singlehandedly LET ME!!!!!! MY FRIGGIN CHOICE MAN! Please go back and read the title of the poll again, it says "Option". That means you can play how you want to play, and I can use my friggin shield if I please. And no I don't give a rat's arse if you think I should run around the field looking for a shield while hired javelineers are taking pot-shots at me.
