Can we please get full body shields!?

I'm sorry but knockdown shields do nothing, literally someone is shooting through my shield in front of me like wtf. Plus we can't even turn around fast enough so we can prevent them from shooting be...

@DreNH17 They were legitimately broken for a while and didn't block damage lol.
But as they stand they are only useful to stop long range finishes. If someone is right next to you, then you are screwed.
A full 360 degree dome of protection knockdown would be a major game changer. Teammates can already hide behind the current version. Your change would make every knockdown a mini Gibraltar dome. That would allow teammates to hide / dance inside downed players shields. Not something I want to constantly go against.

@Pallo420 You can still destroy it tho, it's just like regular KS but it's all around you, there's honestly useless cause not everybody kills from a distance.

@DreNH17 They arent meant to completely prevent you from dyeing, they prevent you from being instantly thirsted even at close range with a mastiff you have to jump around and take some time to thirst a kill.

  @Westhebird I understand that, but even still people just shoot trough it when they're super close to you. Like I said it has the same health as the normal knockdown shield so I'm pretty sure it's not that bad.

    @DreNH17 Knockdown shield health goes up to 750, nobody has time to destroy that in a fight. If you get knocked too far away for your team to help then you should and probably will end up dead. If you dont want to die stay close to your team.
