[QUOTE="Umbran, post: 9044828, member: 177"] According to the rules you [I]USE[/I] the shield with one hand. The rules don't actually specify how many things you can [I]grip[/I], without using them. I think you will find that you can grasp, say, two broomsticks or two flashlights in one hand. You aren't agile in maneuvering them when you do that, but you can hold them that way for a moment pretty easily. Do we need to bring out pictures of Octoberfest servers with many steins in hand to prove the point? But, if you don't like that version, there are others - use the free interaction to sheathe the weapon, then cast a spell. Next turn, you can draw and attack as part of the attack action. If you plan a round ahead, you can. Round 1 - attack, then use free interaction to put shift grip or sheathe the weapon. Round 2, cast bonus action spell, draw weapon with attack action or shift grip with free interaction. Then maybe spend less effort arguing against it? [/QUOTE]
