riot shield has been proposed in numerous other threads. there is a search feature. i still think that it would be good to add for tactical defensive purposes but that's just me. i'm not gonna argue like a 14 year old to say why it would be worth while or wouldn't be, i'm just saying i think it would be something that could be beneficial.

as for the planks, i've got to argue about this.... simply, you've really got no reason for them. if you're a level5 or 6 support, even on suicidal you can literally sit there and keep a door welded the entire wave as specimen pound away at it. i've sat there as all 32 specimen (including FP and scrake) spawned behind the door and i kept the door over 90% the whole time....my clan mate ran around behind them and killed them all :D

if the arguement is that it's different for a lower level support with less weld ability here's the thing....in the time it would take you to nail up a plank or whatever, you could just sit there and keep welding the door. if you're going to get overpowered, it's only going to be a matter of time anyway and having 1 or 2 boards added is not going to help enough to make a difference. would it be cool to have the ability to do it? sure. but is it the most vital thing KF needs? not really. i'd rather see TW invest their time into other improvements​
