On the other hand, you have this: > [@Enemies ai behavior against shields is dumb OR shield poise damage is OP and needs nerfing](https://forum.norestforthewicked.com/t/enemies-ai-behavior-against-shields-is-dumb-or-shield-poise-damage-is-op-and-needs-nerfing/16504/2): > > Or maybe shields shoudln’t make poise damage at all? Definitely not this, because it’s a two-way thing. You get poise damage for hitting a raised shield as well. But making the AI smarter is always a good approach.
