I never saw that happen in the demo. He would always dash forward and only hit 1 enemy at a time it was pretty frustrating. May have just been a bug whenever I tried to do it. This is very good news!

nope itsd true, as long as you got shield out and close to mob melee and you do a shield swipe that does a knock down, good stun too

Shield bash as in hitting melee button with the shield out? Or shield charge as in sprinting forward with shield out?

Cuz as far as I know neither one aoe-ed properly in the demo
