    Does the 50% reduction actually count vs shields?

    Cause if it doesn't...Shields are even more overpowered now.

    I want cloak to get that bolt escape treatment. Because this is just ridiculous. Coupled with detect pots no longer working on cloak... magicka NBs are going to become beyond broken.

    The only shield in the game that is overperforming is the Sorc one. They should just nerf that instead of all of them.

    Wow kinda sad how so many think sorcs are dead just cause bolt escape got nerf. Maybe you can try to stand your ground and actually fight the person instead of running away like cowards just cause you took a single hit. Just saying kidna the point of PvP is to fight and die.

    Also tanking is not dead just cause you can't stamina regen while blocking cause you do not need to relie that heavyly on blocking to tank. If you do relie that heavy on blocking you are not a tank you are just some guy hiding behind a shield thinking you're a tank.

    My Stamina Sorcerer cringed when they announced the Bolt Escape cost stacking, was only able to use it 3 times from full magicka, only getting to use it twice is gonna hurt. Also, the Stam morph of lightning form won't have the speed buff :(

    I like all the changes there except blocking, that I'll have to get my hands on to see. It sounds like it will just benefit zergs IMO b/c you have to hold block the whole time when getting hit by a dozen different guys, meaning no stam faster, meaning easier for zergs to wipe small groups. Also, latency will have to be perfect to time blocks, other wise you'll raise shield to block a shard and still get knocked down even though you were blocking. Also, b/c it uses the stam resource and that being higher makes it better, meaning stam builds will once again have an edge here like dodge rolling, breaking free (things I can only do like one time in my magicka build)
