Anyone else think that having a sword and shield equipped should give some sort of passive bonus? I mean you've got the shield on your arm the entire time. Wouldn't some attacks happen to hit it?

I think aiming with a single pistol or  other secondary type weapon should have you hold the shield up to block some damage but also be able to fire. Why would the shield only be useful for melee.
