So there's this class on the wiki called the shield bearer. but this doesn't actually exist, as any sword bearer can be a shield bearer as well. my idea is to either make a new miscellaneous slot, where you could put things in like a second shield, or a special charge attack, or something like that. This would allow there to be finally be a shieldbearer class, as well as allow you possibly to even bring a shield into lockdown (not 100% sure as to how great an idea is, maybe that would work better with the second possibility). It should definitely not be a slot you have to buy, because then shieldbearer class wouldn't be possible earlier on, which would be a bit annoying.
The second possibility would be to just be able to place a shield in your weapons slot, allowing people to carry two shields and in effect become shieldbearers. I guess the most interesting thing about this possibility is that you could have shield charge attacks, like for the barbarous thorn shied and stuff.
a miscellaneous (yus, spelling is sad, but whatever) slot, and/or allow players to equip shield in wep slot

so im guessing your suggesting a sheild "type" weapon....... if so i would suggest a sheild bash as a regular attack and the charge a ground slam? And maybe when the "actuall sheild" is held the "weapon sheild" 's def would add on to the "actuall sheild" 's def or somthing, and when the "actuall sheild" broke u can use the charge on the weapon sheild =D
