    if the shield doesn't block,you take more damage than when you don't use it.
    tested on several occasions

    You'd have to track the numbers on the EXACT SAME MOB - with and without the shield - for you to say that with any authority.
    Show us the numbers........

    The basic statement still applies, though. Damage is random. As is the amount of damage defended. You would have to do a series of tests: say ... 100 attacks with a shield then 100 attacks without a shield, all with the same skill levels and stats and equipment, then compare the totals.

    Yeah and even after comparing 100 attacks, that seems like a pretty hard thing to pin point with that small of a sample size. Unless it's really tons more damage.

    How did you come to this conclusion @krakenvarados ? How could you notice something like this when damage amounts are so random?

    when i do a duel and put a shield, i can block some magic arrow, but when the shield don't block, i receive crit dmg more than 400hp.
    when i remove the shield,the crit damage don't go more than 300. this happened with my test with a water mage and an earth mage. if somebody want to test I'm available
