Strongly believe there needs to be a change to how shields operate in the game.
Two of my friends recently got into Division 2 about two weeks ago, we went into the DZ for the first time tonight as a group. Within 5 minutes of us being in the DZ they both asked if everybody uses shields in the game. We weren't even in the DZ for 15 minutes before the got frustrated with the overuse of shields and decided to leave.
It is true that the majority of agents in the DZ are using a shield and the only real hard counter is to either use a shield or have a complete skill build dedicated to anti-shield.
Shields should not have so much utility at a skill tier 0.
The use of shields should be tied to skill tier or must be destroyed after being deployed.

The first thing you need to understand is that the devs don't care. No one at ubi/massive has done anything for pvp in forever.
The second thing you need to understand is that PVP in the division is broken. It's always been broken. It will NEVER be fixed.
Last: So if you interact with ANYTHING related to PVP...you do at your own risk, with no recourse to mitigate or address hackers, cheaters, imbalance, or griefing.

Because, let's be honest, there's only one shield being talked about here.
The Division 2 is mostly and strongly a PvE game. PvP part is a mess according to other players. So please avoid the Dark Zones.Originally Posted by RaciaIAdhesive- Go to original post
Could've sworn that the Jammer didn't work against shields, butt will have to give this a try again.Originally Posted by Riflemania Go to original post
Appreciate the response.
As painful as it is to admit, you're probably right.Originally Posted by Sircowdog1 Go to original post
However, with new content dropping, we may see some PvP/PvE changes.
Darkzone has so much potential for some fun PvP events.
Probably would've been easier to condense it down to that.Originally Posted by Cadillac-Jack Go to original post
Figured it was important to note that two brand new players noticed the saturated use of shields in PvP/DZ within minutes of PvPing.
