So the 6s Damage Shields only apply to Cyrodiil right?

Nope PvP nerf = PvE nerf

My Stamplar is going to be so powerful come Dark Brotherhood, vMA will be a cakewalk. Puts my current Magicka Sorc to shame so it'll be funny to compare the two in a couple months as well.

Of course, it's not a "Magicka Sorc", so it can't be OP..... right?

Your stamplar should be strong now

We've moved this thread to the Public Test Server forum since this is regarding PTS changes.

I don't think it should apply in PvE. Igneous shield plays a large part in DK healing as there is no BOL for us to cast. It's one of the primary mechanics that allows us to maintain the groups health from burst attacks without having burst healing.

There is really nothing about igneous shield that deserves a duration nerf, we are just being blanketed into the changes for all shields even though the other shields behave in a very different way.

I couldn't agree more. As someone who has a Trinimac-using DK healer (and thus recast my shield all the time to proc the bonus incidental heal) I recast the shields all the time. But it's certainly something I want up for the healing bonus while healing regardless of the fact that the miniscule little shield barely buffers damage. And I saw that as someone with 90 points in CP for shield strength and way, way more health just to bolster this one shield than most magicka builds would even toy with having.

ZoS can increase the shield duration to 12 seconds and include in the battle spirit 50% reduction of the shield durations for skills, not ultimates. Problem solved. PvPers happy and PvEers happy.
