Greetings all.
I am personally a big fan of the knight borgs, but how can one not have at least one on their team when shields are the only solid block in the game (and with Ruby/Sapphire/Dark Knight being so fun to use)?
But, what exactly can shields block and what can't they.
There have been times when I have sworn that the Dark Knight just blocked my Death ICBM and there have been times when what I was doling out should have been blocked, but wasn't.
What exactly can shields stop?

they can block anything, but if something gets behind it (explosions from certain stuff like missiles) it will be hurt. i've survived countless UC blasts thanks to them, but i still cant position them right to block ICBMs

I'll tell you what shields can't do.
They can't be used by a person. THEY ARE IMPOSSIBLE TO USE ARARARARAGH

Sheilds can block any attack that isn't physical, and is made to their face.
Even stuff like drill robot drills and megaton robot heads.

I started this thread because I am wondering what attacks ignore the shield. Even if you can't remember them all can you name a couple for me? |

Oh, and I'm pretty sure Neo G Crash does the same. |

Dogmantra sums up this thread's title question quite nicely.

i had an odd experience with a shield once, titan robot did its transform flip kick thing but I blocked it, since it's a multihit move it was just sitting there for like 30 seconds blocking that move

I seem to remember Cyber Ninja's X going through shields. Or maybe it just got behind the shield because it's impossible to block four giant spinning blades coming from different angles.
But yeah, I think shields can block everything. It's just a matter of positioning it correctly, which the AI is exceptionally good at.

Almost as annoying as CPU Beam Tank  |

Almost as annoying as CPU Beam Tank Omicron fixes annoying CPUs just fine. If the enemy has a shield or is a Barrier Girl, Omicron's screwed. |
