playing as oak 99% of the time i've been able to make a general strategy against almost every demigod..except regulus. The range alone kills me when going back and forth with him.

One thing I thought about was adding "modes" to oak since he has a shield, a standard mode, and a defensive mode where he would be essentially "raising" his shield in combat more often to hold a flag or other strategic location.

something like this:

Defensive Mode:

-Damage decreased by 30%

-Chance to dodge increased by 15%

-Chance to have shield completely absorb physical damage increased from 0% to 40%

Anyone have any other theories in reference to this?

Note: I suggested that the shield block physical damage, he would still be open to magic based attacks.
