Shield Stacking vs Cast Time

LegacyDM

@ZOS_RobGarrett

I think you should consider removing the 1 second cast delay on shields. I don't play a sorc so I don't have a dog in this fight. However, from a play ability perspective I sympathize with the players. increasing cast times is just not fun. I'm sure you've considered removing shield stacking. Wouldn't that be a better alternative? What are the cons to removing shield stacking that persuaded you to go with a cast time instead?

My proposal would be to only allow one shield at a time. You cast hardened ward but decide to cast healing ward, the healing ward overwrites the hardened ward, and vice versa. Why is this not a better viable option? I still support the criting of shields. That is a move in the right direction.
