Crouch blocking with shields significantly reduces stamina
-
drainage when blocking attacks. I just tested this and confirmed it on an official server. Crouch blocking a vanguard with a bardiche spamming me with my kite shield made it take an extremely small amount of stamina off.
I don’t know if this is an intended feature or a bug, but it literally took less stamina than swinging with your fists, and it needs to be known. I don’t know how it affects other classes with shields.

Does this also work with tower shields? This will make tower shield walls still possible.

Tried the same thing on a duel server against different weapons (Flanged Mace, Warhammer, Spear) and it didn’t have any impact on stamina drain (both for Kite Shield and Towershield).
