Shooting through knockdown shields

So if you walk up as close to someone as you can your gun will clip through the knockdown shield. Doing this allows you to essentially shoot "through" the shield.

I honestly feel like the knockdown shields should just be taken out.

@ItsTardyjay This sounds like a bug that needs patched, I don’t think knockdown shields need removed because they can still be pretty useful as a distraction

It is not a bug it is a feature....
I don't know what it is, some people say it's a legend, some believe it is true... But this bug is longer here, and I saw it coming at me, in season 7.
So be carefull out there, legends never die...

@ItsTardyjay yeah i agree. Either make the shield bigger and stronger or remove them entirely.

What are you talking about, shields are great. The matches would be much more boring without them

@NolanGraysonnn Just to be sure.... we are talking about the k.o Shields not the body shields

@Heli0sH00K Yes. Knockdown shields. The gun clipping is causing issues I believe.

@ItsTardyjay Soo let me get this straight, you are complaining that you can kill someone if you walk right up to them and clip the gun trough the shield, which is maybe more effort then to just shoot them in the back at that point.

And your solution is to remove the shields entirely.

I am glad you are not working for the balance team.
