The Chield is a weapon for the primary slot.
Description
The Charging Shield, or Chield for short, not to be confused with "child", although I suppose both could work as a shield.
How it works
The Chield is worn on your back and is never held. It takes the primary slot, so you fight with your secondary and melee weapons, but its resistances are always on.
- Pressing the key of its slot (1 by default) does not select it; it starts a charge instead. You run forward at 13 m/s for up to 1.5 seconds and can only turn slowly, 60° a second.
- A charge ends when its time runs out or the first time you hit something.
- Hitting an enemy player is a bash: it deals 20 damage at the very start of a charge, rising to 70 for a full-length run, and slows them by 30%, wearing off over 5 seconds.
- After a charge ends you wait 12 seconds before the next.
- While you wear it, bullets do 30% less damage to you and knockback pushes you 50% less.
