I agree with the buffing of the Special Riot Shield as well!

Let me give you guys a little info on what the Special Riot Shield(a regular riot shield was never released I think) USED to do. Back then, the riot shield blocked most bullets, similar to how the saber reflects them. Some update later caused the shield to not block any bullets, now its the second worst melee next to fists.

Imo, make the riot shield block any bullets from guns that normally do 6-7+ damage(not counting commando buffed weapons), and make it do 3-4 damage with no class buff. Not only will it make the riot shield more useful, but it will cause more mid tier guns to be more useful.  

Sounds better than what it is now

Too soon, it's not even fixed yet + only Alex & not Geno can fix it  

I think geno can only work with guns

B-but I said that on the post above you  

O xd  

Same with Hydra shield it doesn't block ****e(has a percentage block which9.9/10times doesn't block considering there is multiple bullets going at it) It should 100%block with chance of reflecting AS YOU CAN EASY KILL FROM DIAGONALLY shooting at player even if had shield up.  

It should really be fixed tho  

Also the lava gun that I spent 20k on...yeah, completely useless right now.  

Yeah i cant fix the riot shield -.-

The hydra one works tho. One note to point out is that the shield only blocks bullets shot from the opposite direction you're facing. For example, if i am facing left and blocking and you're facing right and shoot, itll block it. But if youre facing downwards and happen to angle the bullet to the right and it directly hits the shield, ill still take damage because you were't facing to the right.

@nyte, kinda off topic but i can't fix that, because i don't have the rights enabled to do so..........  

If the hydra shield works, why don't you just copy/paste the codes? Hydra shield does the same job as riot shield despite the design, correct? If that's the case, wouldn't copy/paste the code of hydra shield to riot shield solve the problem?
