Chuch and another friend have noticed that for a little gain of Armor, let's say from 14 to 17 one looses Initiative 8 to 7, Accuracy 12 to 10, and in this example Damage 48 to 85 down to 37 to 62! The question is is that Shield doing me any good at all until I find one that for a much greater increase in Armor does far less decreases in the other stats? If and when I go to a two-handed weapon of course then Shields are out anyway.
On the other side of the coin, if my thoughts on Shields above is valid, what would be the character-build situation where a good Shield would be important?
Thanks.
