Shields exist in game, likely in conjunction with specific defensive maneuvers which require them equipped to use.

I've been fighting a lot and have yet to encounter any shield defense maneuver.

There's a niggling idea that you need a weapon/shield equipped to have a chance at looting a skill related to said item. System is still pretty murky though and that's only a hunch.

My friend couldn't loot chop, despite fighting ants all the time. We think it was because he was doing it with bow equipped during hunt runs.

I unlocked chop from fist fighting a boar, so I don't think you need a shield. Keep fighting, maybe equip one could help with unlocking a shield manuever

I've had a shield equipped almost constantly, though, hoping to get the disco.

What skill is needed to craft a shield?
