so i was watching history channel and they said that flails were implemented in midevil times because they were a good counter to shield using opponents because they could hit the edge of the shield with the chain and it would wrap around and hit the dude in the head. do you think their could be a feat that made it so when you wielded a flail it reduced or nullified an opponents shield bonus? is it too powerful of a feat? its pretty specific you dont fight many people with shields and it would be usless against monsters. so what do you guys think is it plausable as a feat?
I think it's likely to be to weak rather than too strong.
It might make a good start for a feat chain IMO.

Agreed. Chain weapons need more love.
