Basically I ran into a situation where I was stuck and being charged by a guy with a riot shield. I fired 5 direct shot at him, these are tank shells BTW. And they did nothing. No explosion. No damage. The shield just magiced them away!

we can now assault a tank from the front

Overdramatized version of these events

I think the glass should get cosmetic glass cracks in it when it gets shot

It could be there it’s just weak glass
You can shoot through vehicle windows and they have glass

tawdry steppe
on a ballistic shield?
sharp ermine
shield should do at least what a shield does
I mean cosmetically
It would be cool if it got cracks in it
Like ready or not has this

Yeah

What if you don’t just absorb a shot but reflect it?
Imagine you press the block button at the right moment (perfect blocking or something like in Sekiro) and the tank's shot is reflected back into the tank
