    1. add a push. how does it work you may ask? well if someone is blocking you can push them to make them lose balance for a few moments (not seconds, that would be op).


    I'm not a pro by any means. so go ahead and criticize my suggestions!

    You know, this is a pretty fun idea actually. It is pretty annoying if some other knight is in the way and you're both just doing the staring contest thing while running up against each other with shields.

    The input also seems quite doable - left clicking while shielding, for instance, could make the knight thrust his shield forward, giving a little push to whatever it was touching. Seems quite versatile too, you could help your team up a wall more easily, and maybe even push the ground to bounce off of it a little?

    This is actually my favorite of your suggestions, most of the others technically exist in some form. But like Brotato said, it could be very situationally useful.

    That's the best tho. Shield wall pushing into shield wall.

    This can be achieved with a shield bash already:

    He meant like, more than usual. I wasn't thinking stun like shield bash, I was thinking just shoving people/things around with it.
     
  10. Sounds like a stun to me, I guess you want to be able to stun without having to do the motions for a shield bash? That sounds like you'd be able to stunlock someone in a tunnel and move them, correct me if I'm wrong.

    I was thinking more of a knockback move without the stun, like an actual push.

    I think i'd like this if there was something to negate against it, like crouching or standing still. Without it then I can see the 2v1 becoming so much more of a nuisance, it'd essentially be

    with the occasional slash or jab thrown in. Honestly even 1v1s could just become a shove jab fest. (Of course this depends on what you're meaning, as there is nothing specifying whether the push would just push someone backwards or would stun them, i'm assuming you're intending for it to stun though, if not then my mistake.)

    Interesting idea. I think it would be worth testing.

    There should probably a limit to how often you can push, in the form of a cool-down, and possibly how many times. How it works in Vermintide comes to mind, but it might be a bit too complicated (the game also has some graphical feedback in the form of small shield icons).
     
  16. Knight having a stun, surely this has never backfired before.

    It has. Don't consider it.
    But what if we still went through with it and everyone had a free no friendly fire water bomb at their disposal?! Amazing gameplay!
