What does Bastion do exactly?

I know this Champion system passive "Increases the effectiveness of damage absorbing effects"; but what does that mean? What are damage absorbing effects? Is that all shields? Does increase effectiveness mean make bigger? This is very vague can someone help?

McDoogs✭✭✭✭Pretty much just makes damage shields (conjured ward, sun shield, igneous shiled, etc) bigger. It seems like the size is calculated based on the spell's scaling mechanism (either health or magicka) and then the bastion modifier is applied. I havent done any hard tests on it though, and I'm only at 108CP so at most i can put ~35 into itEdited by McDoogs on March 18, 2015 10:28AM5

The way I understand the ability to work is the increase total amount of damage the shield can take,
so a blazing shield would gain 32% instead of the base 30% when activated0 -
indigoblades✭✭✭Has anyone tested this.... because increasing magika will make a harden ward tooltip increase, but when i tested bastion a few weeks ago it had no effect on the tooltip shield size.0 -

The physical damage increase champion trait doesnt raise tooltips either, but it definitely works.1 -

✭✭✭✭I use the "shield info" addon and it shows that bastion increases the shield strength of igneous shield.Retired.

indigoblades✭✭✭Ok .... does 'Mighty' (the physical damage increase) just raise light and heavy attack or does it raise all physical abilitys (such as wrecking blow, cleave ect )0
