Shield block is worse than the spec skills, I think at least. If you play a staff/spear spec you are most likely playing a high dex race, such as felar or arial because staff and spear is dex based, and staffs and spears are generally pretty light. The high dex make you dodge and parry well anyways. Polearms on the other hand are strength based, and generally quite heavy. So, you might want to play a strong race such as human or a giant. Well, these strong races are usually quite clumsy, which makes you parry and doge less allthough distance would work better than spin.
Feel free to correct me if I don't know shit.
