Player2 Posted April 16 Share Posted April 16 Just read someone's request for invisible weapons and they mentioned an invisible shield, letting the player use asymmetrical shoulder and glove options to bulk up their shield arm if they choose. And while there is merit to that idea, I think we're long overdue for some new shield customization options. So here's a few ideas of my own, and feel free to add your own. Top half of an Arbiter Drone, like you've hollowed it out and wear it on your arm for defense now The gauntlet of a PPD Hardsuit A hub cap The legacy Battle Axe (minus the handle) That round mission door on top of submarines Bathroom door (men's and women's options)... yes, they're big but so are riot shields. A seemingly insubstantial aura of fiery/steamy area (if it's good enough for the Fire and Ice Sword - Elemental to cut things, it should be good enough to block stuff) Trash can lid The "star" on top of the tree on the frozen lake of the Winter Forest map, which really appears to be just Phoenix wings shrunk down to a small size... but that could look cool on the arm. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saiyajinzoningen Posted April 16 Share Posted April 16 there are a lot of shield options but there are a few missing I don't think there's a nature shield for example my issue with an invisible shield is: most armors have some type of visual animation letting you know the toggle is active keeping my eyes on my power tray ruins immersion for me shield armor has zero visual animations aside from the shield itself. I would like some kind of visual cue that my toggles are still active if/when the shield is invisible Its easy to criticize a suggestion but can you suggest an alternative?
