Come to think about it, it's not that OP considering these guys don't have stagger abilities to break my turtling (would not try vs mammoth + giant cluster). It's very satisfying though, because of the sound the shield bashes make and the very fast speed of bash animation. Blocking is my favourite skill now even when playing sword+board normally because the tactical choices you have in that perk tree is quite unmatched.
This is why I never even go 2hander. It's so convenient to have the shield bash at the ready. I wish I can endorse the 2hander in some way, but i find it real slow compared to the steady rhythm of block - slash setup.
