You can't and I don't think I would... though it's entertaining to imagine beating someone to a bloody pulp with your two shields.

Oh, and this. :turtle: :shifty: :turtle:

It makes sense to be able to, since I'm pretty sure Todd mentioned at one point that you can choose to be right- or left-handed. That would imply that you can pick what you hold in each hand. If you have two shields, I don't see why the game would go out of its way to prevent you from holding them unless they thought it would too weird with the animations. I would imagine that you wouldn't be able to attack, though.

You can dual wield shields.

You can bash with a shield.

Edit: Turns out I was wrong. You can't dual wield shields.

Yes please! It would be hilarious if a dragon ends up trying to bite through my two Elven Shields!

Big Shield in one hand, Bigger Shield in the Other.

I'll do that if I have to run away from a Fire Breathing dragon.

But in combat? I think not

If you could smith spikes or enchant destruction magic to your shields I would love making a dual shields character personally. Shield bash + destruction + forged spikes on your shields = awesome.

I read this a long time ago, and it may not be true.
But according to this, you can dual wield shields.

Confirmation of no dual-wielding shields: http://www.gamesas.com/index.php?/topic/1176076-polearms-confirmed/page__view__findpost__p__17389912

This confirmation also explicitly states that the PC Gamer article got it wrong.

This poll is irrelevant as it has already been confirmed that you cannot duel wield shields. However if you made another question about "Do you want to be able to duel wield shields" I may have a better answer.

Yeah, probably. Nevertheless, it's a little misleading, and it was nice for Gstaff to set the record straight.

in my opinion that sounds [censored]

unless ur a riot shield noob (lol todd howard made a refrence to cod so i thought it would be a good referance)

no offence but it does seem pointless

i mean u could mabey use shouts and defend urself but i dont think that the shouts will be powerful enough to compensate for a lack of a weapon
