I think shields are not op. Shields are totally useless in melee fight in 1.9.

In 1.11 If you use shield into melee combats you still take damage from behind, and you can't attact because you are holding shield, so you still lose the combat.

Also shields are one of the most expensive item in the game.

Whyed i think of halo after reading this?

Anyway unless your spleefed or shot in the back, in 1.11 eggwars your 100% invulnerable
You cannot place blocks and hold the shield at the same time. You're still susceptible to arrows in that case.

Using the shield reduces your mobility greatly. Mobility is always a big deal since it's either you take a hit from the enemy or the enemy misses. A missed hit > a blocked hit, regardless. Even if the enemy hits you while your shield is up, your shield still takes damage.

Shields are OP? Whut Wit? You can still deal damage to them with critical hits... Also eggs.
1.11 shields block all damage and reduce knockback 100% that is why they are considered op.

Shields did need a buff desperately but this was not the right kind of buff. They should have just removed the blocking cooldown. For now in 1.11 make sure to carry an axe, lava bucket, or potions to deal with shield users. Good strafing is the only way to deal damage otherwise

In eggwars op mode because shielders move at shift speed you can suicide spleef with an eff 8 pickaxe easily and hope they dont have an epearl, but unfortnetly strafing is also highly ineffective, you cant attack from the sides or head on, only from behind which flanking a shielder in 1.11 is op in some games
