New keystones, and build varieties

Hello exiles and developers,

I MightyMouth am a small content creator and ARPG enjoyer. I have played thorns builds for the better part of 10 years and love the play style, now that thorns is viable in Poe 2,who would enjoy implementing a dual shield build into the game. You could use abilities like resonating shield and shield charge with double the damage from off hands.



Sure the build would have its challenges.maybr you only get the damage scaling from whichever shield has the highest defences, but you could use 2 different uniques to gain maximum power.i think this could make for an extremely tanky fun Warbringer build using shouts and shield moves.

Maybe make a unique that effectively can roll the mods of a sceptre without the spirit. Like allies in your presence deal increased damage, and things of that nature like morrior of Invictus having a large pool of potential rolls but only getting 3-4 of them.

Or a barbed shield that have 300-450 thorns and has a 25% chance to bleed with a chance to aggravate bleeding or something of that nature.

Also I think the unique gloves that reverse the knock back direction could also be a keystone passive.you miss out on ALOT of power being locked behind having to wear the gloves. Or potential use of gravebinds for a rarity support build pulling enemies away from your dps allies and also supplying presence buffs and rarity is about the pinnacle of my character fantasy. Maybe make the dual wield shields a keystone like giants blood (which is tripling the requirements of EVERY martial weapon, one handed or otherwise. Perhaps we could get more shield skills in the future.
