Shields are ridiculously expensive in normal mode? 30 diamonds, really?! Shields aren't even that overpowered in CubeCraft, they block 80% of damage and you still take knockback when blocking with a shield. And if you don't have a shield, you are very vulnerable to players with punch bows.

They are a bit expensive, but I feel like it fits the nature of shields in eggwars. You're never really going to buy a shield unless its late game, to counter a bow. I can see maybe a decrease to 20-25 diamonds, but no more than that - it's a late game item.

I agree with this suggestion, because it's always very annoying when someone starts bowspamming with a punch bow and it takes you longer to get a shield, as it's more expensive. But shields are also essential when there are people with power 1 bows as they deal a lot of damage! And power 1 bows are far less expensive than the shields.
