Does a knight need this, more than his/her warrior side? I thought the whole point of playing a knight is to have a shield. I would prefer to have the ability to throw my shield than drop it all-together and pick up a 2-h axe. This feels like an Identity Crisis to me. Does playing a knight and warrior mean I am supposed to switch roles?
When I first started playing the game I thought it was strange how easily I became sword & shield with my warrior, and 2-handed on my knight. I thought, "play your role, this looks silly," only to find out that is what the game intended all along. Am I crazy or is this weird to anyone else? I mean my warrior is better at parrying than my knight, and my knight is better at using 2-handers than my warrior is what I'm seeing.
