I like the idea of shields. We'll try one. No guarantees it will survive gameplay iteration if it doesn't work out. But definitely interested.
Could I suggest a Shield like melee weapon?
Yes call me the nut but I do think Spiked shields (Like rounded til you go for a strike where you bash a now spiked shield into the foe,spikes come out as you bash causing more force on a lesser area )
So it helps teammates ,along with a tank play style but hurts non the less (so a Mix between Heavy melee,light melee and a tank's style ,With a FOR SPARTA vibe)
and if we add smaller arms it could be something like (so you can SLIGHTLY defend yourself against ranged ,but you sariface the defence of near full body)
