I agree with the buffing of the Special Riot Shield as well!

Let me give you guys a little info on what the Special Riot Shield(a regular riot shield was never released I think) USED to do. Back then, the riot shield blocked most bullets, similar to how the saber reflects them. Some update later caused the shield to not block any bullets, now its the second worst melee next to fists.

Imo, make the riot shield block any bullets from guns that normally do 6-7+ damage(not counting commando buffed weapons), and make it do 3-4 damage with no class buff. Not only will it make the riot shield more useful, but it will cause more mid tier guns to be more useful.
