ok Why don't sins/hermits/night lords have shields? I mean they only have one claw and their other hand is free. and shields can give off weapon attack and some sins may want to hit higher. So the real question is why don't sins have shields? and do you think sins should have shields?

because we are already strong without an attack shield. if we get to equip an attack shield, the game will be unbalanced.

One hand is to hold the stars, the other hand is to throw it. xD

try jump attacking with a shield.

Considering it's a trained assassin and not an idiot, jump attacking with a shield wouldn't be a problem if you wanted to ignore the way the game is made. But yeah, it'd be unbalanced.

Our other hand is free to get into our pockets and grab the correct amount of Stars. Plus Claws are kind of like our mini-Shield anyways (some add Def, some others add Avoid). xD

Why can't brawlers have shields? Why can't 'Slingers have shields? Why can't archers have shields (They can still pull the arrow)? I'm going to assume that the creators wanted every class to have its own way of working. Assassins being stealthy ninjas who would carry only a glove to hold ninja stars and throw them. A Bandit to be some stabbing psychopath with a shield JUST in case.
