@ZOS_GinaBruno , where is fix for absorb shields? My khajit-NB vs player with spam absorb shields. MY PASSIVES USELESS VS ABSORB-SHIELDS:

Pressure Points (class)
Hemorrhage (class)
Carnage (race)
Twin Blade and Blunt (weapon, daggers)
Dexterity (armor, medium)
Precise strikes (champion system)
Perfect strike (champion system)

And it's only crits. Dots and ignore armor useless too.

IT IS NOT BALANCE!

    haha just had a guy cast 20k healing ward bubble. Seems legit. Time to make shield critable @ZOS_RichLambert
    This recent update has made me sad. Sad for the game. Sad for the community. Sad to pay whatever it is now. I want the previous eso back.

    I can cast 20k healing ward when my health is critical. Is that what you mean?

    Lies outrageous lies. This is impossible. You probably saw someone using healing ward and another ward on top, then 20k might be possible.

    I've pushed my Magicka to over 42k here, something I couldn't really do in real pvp without sacrifising my efficience and effectivness. This picture is showing my low health healing ward, the healing wards of average people and people you're going to encounter in Cyrodiil will be much weaker, something like 9k or so. I could add Bound Armor to push it to 13k, but then I would use up 6 ability slot, which would make this unplayable in real pvp.

    @silky_soft stop telling wrong feedback and then even dare linking a Zenimax member to see your outrageous lie.

    There was no faded blue bubble, no funky looking whitestrakes bubble, no other colours around this guy except the red/orange ward bubble and his shield bar saying 20k.

    What's the colour of the new shield from Combat physician? Pretty lazy if it's same colour. That would make it 20k, I didn't see anyone else around us. Though buffs and heals do go through walls.

    Maybe Harness Magicka ? It has no color and is quite hard to see when it's on this bright orange shield.

    Could as well be a AI mistake. However, 20k is not possible with 1 single shield, not even with barrier.
    You need 2 strong shields to achieve 20k or 3 even

    One thing is wrong dear, my barrier on my stamblade with 53 points into bastion is 24.8k xD So one barrier can give 20k shield
    The others may not tough ^^

    Edit: Finally we can test with our own characters and gear. My stam regen dropped from 2940 to 1560 tough wtf :O

    Edit2: nvm I forgot to spec all skills and passives etc xD

    Firstly, there still is the very common bug that your old shields just get "stuck" on your healthbar, making it look as if you had a shield were there is none (and increasing the value whenever a shield is actually active). That goes for the caster himself as well as other players looking at him.

    Besides that, some people reported some bugged stat valus in IC. Highest I heard of on the magicka side so far was 42k magicka and 4k spell damage, wich would also increase Healing Ward. And I wouldn't be surprised if some players who find out what happened start exploiting this on PTS.

    Really ? Impressive actually.
    Because my Barrier on live is 36k, 50% less is 18k or so. Can't remember, if I took this number in pvp or pve.
    But it's an expensive ultimate, it should be stronger than average shields :)
