Well, shields seem to be lacking some variety, they are all completely defensive except for quickstrike which gives aspd, and scarlet which gives 2 health (which are quite useless given the stats of the shield)
So how about:
A shield that return a % of the damage it shields to the attacker. And has some subpar stats compared to most shields.
Yes/No?
This really depends how much the monsters are really doing..... I remember how red rover DESTROYS everything in a stage when that bug happened.
I like the concept of a shield that reflects damage back at the enemy. It couldn't be a big percentage, but it would definitely help in a situation where your'e surrounded. Just bunker down and soften enemies up a bit before blowing them to bits.
What do you think the shield would look like?
Yes sounds good to be honest, but lets have the health for the shield to be a bit low =).
