I've always assumed shields were of only use to add stats to the player. I think they should be of some use when it comes to melee and missile attacks also, but I have a question I'd like to ask here. Why exactly when wooden arrows are shot do they seem to make an explosion? So, with blocking missile weapons like arrows, if something explodes upon your shield, there's not much going to be much blocking going along there. :|
