Return of Reckoning

I dont like play snb dok snb wp spec (only chalice/book) but that will be awsome for a skin in chalice/book spec.

Sorry to derail the thread a bit but this triggered my inner nerd !

Please rethink that sentence - while there may be a specific time period were this was the most common used shield ( and even this is questionable)
The majority of time in ancient history bigger shields were the way to go ! "Cheap" and reliable protection.

Just go from greeks to roman to vikings ... and we can go further to egyptian and soth african shields (Nguni) .... to way eastern Rattan shields from Ming dinasty soldiers to arabian shields like the Sparabara and even the way more modern Sipar started way bigger and just went smaller in the late middle ages early Renaissance.

But it would look 10 times better if they were bigger size dont you think? (at least a few of them)
Most of the time when i fight a dok take me a few seconds to know if it's a chalice or a shield.
Cant find a picture but saw it a few times on the net wp with a big shield. Would just look better.

I second this 100000%

Holding a book and a big shield that's what am talking about haha

The spec needs to be removed and the devs need to apologize for the years of this garbage they inflicted upon us. In no way should they ever waste a single moment of development time on shield spec WP/DoK.
