The shield which comes with using the cavalry division in COD:ww2 isn't all that effective against one who knows how to counter it. Here are some ways:
1.) A sticky grenade stuck to the shield is a sure kill.
2.) A hit on the shield with a bazooka or panzershreck is a sure kill, and you can be quite close to the target without killing yourself in the process.
3.) A shield cannot defend against a flame weapon such as a Molotov cocktail, flamethrower., & incendiary shotgun shell.
4.) A shield is no defense against an aerial attack, including artillery, glide bomb, mortar, strafing, or ball turret gunner.
5.) A rifle grenade will kill a shield user at any range unless the shield user is uning "Hunker". In that case, the rifle grenade must be fired from no farther than about 20 feet from target.
6.) Shoot at the shield user's feet if he/she's running or walking with the shield toward you. of if you're behind him & he has the shield on his back.
7.) "Cook" a frag grenade, timing it to go off soon as it lands & toss it beside the shield user.
8.) Use a stun grenade so the shield user can't move fast enough to block you if you're close to him.
While a shield will OCCASIONALLY save you, don't become very dependent upon it. Most players will soon figure out how to counter it. To me, it's more a liability than an asset, as I can't use any weapon attachments & can only carry one weapon. But, to each his/her own!
