I have crafted hardened steel shield post “500 patch” - equipping it gives around 1% damage mitigation.
Does anyone remember shield stats pre-500 patch? I have a feeling above mentioned “change” has been “dropped” somewhere on the road to the final patch version.
Also thralls and npc don’t use it to block xD
I thought sheilds were supposed to have gotten a boost?!
Is that with or without wearing anything else?
Going from 800 to 900 armor is about 1% damage reduction.
0 to 100 however is about 30%
they still not really viable for pvp, spear can do 2 attacks in the time your dude wants to take the shield up 
I dont think the armor was ever a problem…
