Ah, I wasn't thinking an offensive shield. Just, something you stick on your offhand while holding something else. Or, a weapon type that's always paired with another, since using a shield kinda does change your combat style.
So like, you can have saber/shield as a separate combat style from simply saber, with either weaker or clunkier gameplay that provides more defensive options. Or a spear/shield combo that gives you good defensive options, but sacrifices versatile attacks for more direct ones.
Other options are axe / hammer / poleaxe / warhammer. Axe / hammer could be similar to a sword, but half the length and heavier followthrough. Warhammers and poleaxes are hammers and axes mounted onto poles, and act like heavier glaives. Though nobody would bat an eye if they're just reskins of the glaive with different stats.
If you prefer more exotic weapons, I could look into that.
In terms of ranged weapons, I tend to like mine heavy. I prefer light bows over pistols, but I also love myself a grenade launcher or a minigun.
