Nothing wrong with a Tower Shield / Spear combo. It's actually quite amazing when you figure out that the knock back helps you throw the spear right after the block. Works tremendously well vs Wolves. Cheesy? Maybe. Legit? Hell yeah. This loadout vs the Mountains is actually top tier. Drakes harassing you? Block the ice balls you cannot parry anyway, and throw spear when they stop moving, bring extra Spears and make them come close. No Bow required.
