I was wondering if anyone find sbash or scharge useful.

Please show some clips of you trying it?

Meh both those suck completely....

You lunge forward at a fanged goblin with your crested vultite greatshield and attempt a shield bash!
[Roll result: 160]
Competent bash and a fanged goblin is knocked over by the blow.
... 10 points of damage!
Blow to back cracks several vertebrae.
The fanged goblin is stunned!
Roundtime: 5 sec.

Sure thats a low level critter but damage is the same at higher levels pfft 5 sec rt with 3 ranks and knocks them on the ground

Scharge same deal

You charge forward at a fanged goblin with your crested vultite greatshield and attempt a shield charge!
[Roll result: 155]
Solid charge and a fanged goblin is sent crashing to the ground!
... 5 points of damage!
Blow raises a welt on the fanged goblin's right arm.
The fanged goblin screams, shudders one last time and dies.
Roundtime: 8 sec.

I do however like Sunder it kicks ass

[Roll result: 159]
You swing your spiked vultite waraxe at a fanged goblin's wooden shield and connect!
The wooden shield splinters and is rendered utterly useless!
Roundtime: 3 sec.
