The Dragonknight class is also in a very strong spot currently.

Just note though that 1 hand + shield line is a tank focused weapon, so it typically won't have good DPS compared to the DPS weapons, but it can be very useful for a back bar defensive weapon where you have your defensive skills like buffs and heals.

Unless you go for a bash build. With the right setup you can hit like a truck.

I’ve seen really effective bash builds, but the drawback seems to be you get to spam one button, a lot. Kind of like werewolves spamming howl…
Kinda boring?

Not necessarily, my NB bash build is quite tactical as you can run out of resources quickly if you combo LA-Power Slam- Bash over and over. But even so, coming out of stealth with a Deadlands Demolisher and the above combo is lethal even to very skilled players.
