The shield guys in crucible are busted

For one, their shield doesnt block whats in front of them which I imagine is an actual bug. They’ve blocked me when striking from behind, and when jumping down from above. I’ll do fire throw, the thing is coming back from behind them and they still block it. Somehow them blocking a ranged attack will also stun me.

Second, their combos vary way too widely. You get one chance to hit them, if you swing twice they stun and wreck you, but you can’t tell if their combo is actually ending.

Then they get the full poison damage cast which tracks you, and is only avoiding by rolling at the exact right time.

The big area thing in front of them which covers half the screen is the least bad thing they have.

Went through crucible and got through 4 rooms no problem, because no shield guys.

Absolutely ridiculous enemies that are not comparable to anything else on their tier.

About swinging twice and getting staggered; parry is very good against them as it opens them up for attacks, especially if one is using multi-attack weapons such as daggers.

Personally though as a Katana player they are incredibly easy to kill. Normal Attack + Plague Swirl stuns them and one shots them.

so plague swirl ignores the second attack block AND does so much damage it one shots them?

and I thought fire throw was busted
