Can you describe different ways to take down shields? See if we come up with many methods. Maybe ways to protect against it too.

I think the newbies give up when they find out that someone has a shield, as they are not yet advanced enough to know how to break them.

There is the common way, to just hit the shield with energy til it dissolves, but im sure there are many advanced methods out there.

Post your methods and defence against it. Maybe someone will learn, including me

have someone (something else) do it for you?

Throwing energy at a shield shouldn't do much in terms of damage without further programming and/or tech.

How about placing an inwards mirror shield on the outside of the other's shield system. Then making a construct that takes all the energy which he sends out, and making a shield on the outside of that again, placing the construct in between the two shields you make. Could that work?

Shields are shields.  There are many types.  The possibilities are too numerous, probably infinite, to generalize a "could it work" that would cover any significant majority of the possibilities.

Well, brute force is always a favorite of mine that usually works because most people aren't that smart enough to prevent that from breaking it.

A lot of times, you can just take the shield off the person.  You can teleport attacks inside to avoid the shields, you can use time-distortion to make the attack go back in time when there were no shields there, and a many number of other ways.

Of course, your shields protect against these things, right?

[tor86]

Yes, brute force. I know about that.

My shields are the most powerful shields in the whole world  .. Not.. Actually, I don't have shields, but don't tell anyone

Although I don't have shields, I have known about the art of psionics for several years..  I think I am a natural empath, feeling peoples emotions.. And I always have the feeling that people can read me. But I manage okay without shields. It's not like im under constant attack..

If I were to make a shield, would it be enough to just focus my awareness around my whole body, holding my focus long enough with intent, to make a shield around me? Is it really necessary to draw out energy first?

And if I were to make a shield, I think I have peers that may take it down again, for im really not that experienced..

I have had an experience, could you or another verify that: When you are unshielded, people's links go through your head, to your plane of thought, then go down to the heart, where it is attached. So first into the head, then down to the heart. When you are shielded (yes I think I actually have had one   ) then the links just attach to the shield.

Maybe the way for me was to train without shields, so I don't rely on shields too heavily.
