Well what about an entire "Defender" class, which is pretty much a stickman that equips shields and has a defense value . . . pretty much a tanking class, it will attack enemies with its shield, which won't do much damage, but its just for the sake of having it do something other than being a meat tank . . . |

Sounds useless. Does it just distract enemies while the others attack from a distance?

What would the stats increase, and what would the shields do? Something like: Mag = magic defense Dex = normal defense Atk = base attack Sounds useless. Does it just distract enemies while the others attack from a distance? Pretty much. It's main propose would be just to tank. It wouldn't be very useful in normal mode, but every good VS team would need one. |

Shields would add a small amount of ATT, but mainly, the better the shield is, the more DEF it adds. As for other effects, like how staffs for priests have effects like poison and freeze, I'm not sure how to incorporate that yet . . .

Maybe the Shield, if it had, say, the Poison Type, it could block Poison without being poisoned?

that would be a pretty good idea, elemental resisting shields . . . and there could also be a fire resistant shield, which would make stop the fire as soon as it hit the shield (it would still do damage once though, just to be fair)

Perhaps it could also protect some other rangers, besides itself?

It should still have freeze sheilds that freeze enemies.

you mean like, when the defender is attacked, the enemy would be frozen shortly?

There's an idea.
Have the defender only use his magic when he's attacked, kinda like the mushrooms only he moves towards the enemies.

So, do his Shields block magical attacks of their Type, or do they attack the enemy when attacked?

maybe there can be different types of shields? depending if you want to be more offensive or defensive . . . shields that attack back should have lower defense modifiers just to be fair.

Good Idea is good.
Mirror shield to reflect projectiles perhaps?

That would probably be the first Shield.

The first shield would be "shield". The mirrior shield doesn't actually reflect attacks. Also is does is block beamos'es and Evil Eagle's Attacks  |
