 * Have a companion in the group with you attack you with a primitive knife, they are cheap and easy to make, just block the attacks. The blocker should move slightly to adjust for the knife strikes. With practice and proper placement of the shield it is possible to have just the shield struck by the knife. The knife attacks at approximately 1 attack per second, so rapid gains in the shield skill is possible regardless of the settings on the server.
