a little specialisation for Royal Guards Idea

[Kriegstofu]

Zweis have 2h Stabbing Mode
Juggs have DMG reduction
Legio has throwies and light armor and 1h

RG has better armor and better shielding. Let it have shield bash!

being in a tight spot, a shield bash knocks down an enemy (like big shot). as RGs are too heavy to run out of a difficult situation, why not let it bash its way out
(with maybe some additional damage depending on shield resistance)

normal keybind like Q or something like this (as most mods place it on a right click left click combo, which can be bad if you backpedal while shielding&attacking)


so whaddaya'll think of this little idea?

I hate it
Most of the shield bash I've seen in other mods are slow and end with me getting hit

I'm afraid it makes little sense unless your shield can still block like with kicks
I don't know how code would work for that though

I would want shield bashing, but not just for RG. If you have ever played cRPG, you can 'strike' someone and stagger them, similar to a shield bash - I would implement something like this and replace kicking (E) with it, seeing as how kicking isn't very useful any more, and is hard to land a solid hit. With a new animation that wouldn't stop the player's movement, striking an enemy would be a valid tactic and add a little more depth to active melee.
On to shield bashing - if you have a shield equipped, your 'strike' turns into a shield bash, and instead of staggering the enemy, it knocks them down. Bosses would be unaffected by striking or shield bashing to keep players from spamming it and locking a boss down (old kicking was changed because of this), and the strike would have a 3 second cooldown to keep players from spamming it so fast a bot can't do anything.
This would benefit RG the most, seeing as how RG's typically always have a shield and a one hander. RG's would be able to utilize this change more than any other class, which I guess doesn't give it something special, but it does give it something over the other classes. An additional damage bonus (Edit: For RG) also wouldn't be too bad of an addition. I'm in favour of some form of this idea.

You cant place towers unless you don't have a 1h on you. 

With this, I would at least have something playing Pc so im

in favour of some form of this idea.

or by making the shields have an alternative blunt two handed crush -through mode (cant be blocked with wihile in this mode) (useable similar to the V (tower shield deployment of PC)- and thus only switched every 3 or so seconds

Its a nice little feature but not quite sure how it brings more depth in melee u can outspamm every bot ( not bosses obv) as Infantry anyways
