obviously we know shield sizes and what not are getting discussed behind the scenes and I leave it up to them to talk and debate further, this is different
Shield SOAK
I feel that shield soak has outlived its purpose in the system, that purpose was primarily to give empaths a way to destroy them, they have that now in the way of shatter, and that's how they have been dealt with for a while now, you don't hit a shield with a giant channel whether your a PC or an NPC, you use shatter, its faster and more effective.
I feel that the game has evolved to the point where shields can have the same mechanics as weapons, and that is be unbreakable unless hit with a "shatter" call. there still exists within the PC set of rules means to deal with shields, and those with access to them and their effectiveness against shields has not changed.
-shatter
-crush (ha yeah right)
-disarm
as you debate shield sizes please debate this as well as there are a few skills and craftsman options that effect shields that would require rework to accommodate this change. however I feel it is a good change that makes the mechanics of shields much simpler, bringing it line with other weapon mechanics and the mechanics of Finalhaven as it exists today.
