    Yeah, can't believe I can't just sit back in relative safely and do a ton of damage without counter, it's crazy. Fortunately, I can still hide in the back of my zerg half the time and get the winning snipe - you don't know how hard it is to get the killing blow on a player with thirty other people hitting them!

    Simple question:

    Why isn’t the shimmering shield damage cap subject to battle spirit?

    Seems that would mostly fix the issue entirely to me. It can absorb 3 projectiles OR 10K or so in damage after battle spirit. That means it can eat a light attack and a frag, but maybe not the follow up.

    I thought the damage cap was per projectile.

    What skill do you know of that can do 25k damage? My tank tool tip is 60k and my Magden is 27k

    It absorbs 3 times more damage than absorb magic, the SnB skill that absorbs 1 projectile. Connect the dosts ;)

    I find it funny when people compare sorc shields to the warden. Sorcs have only shields as a defense form, if they stack, 2 of them are available to all classes, warden included.

    Warden has shimmering, 2 shields, stupidly high self heal and the lovely birds to wreck dodge rollers, not op at all
