Shield Warrior
You have mastered the art of using shields as weapons. You gain the following benefits:
You can benefit from up to 2 shields (including stacking their bonuses to AC).
When using a shield as an improvised weapon, you have proficiency with it.
You can don or doff two shields when you would normally only be able to don or doff one.
How does this compare to existing RAW feats, balance-wise?
Known interactions
Shield Master
- Completely non-redundant with Shield Warrior
- Possible balance issue with adding the AC bonus of two shields to Dex saves when combined with Shield Warrior
Tavern Brawler
- Proficiency with improvised weapons overlaps with Shield Warrior's proficiency with improvised weapons (shields)
Dual Wielder
- Allows two-weapon fighting with two shields
- Looks like +1 AC would not be applied, as improvised weapons are not melee weapons
