Shield Breaker should not proc on every shield

Annulment - What's the point? It's protection against magical damage
Igneous Shield - This thing is barely a shield. I don't think it's fair to be taking unresistable damage just because you have a tiny shield that wouldn't protect you against a fly fart.
Hardened Ward, Healing Ward - absolutely.

✭✭✭✭✭Shieldbreaker should deal the dmg to the shield, but this song keeps repeating on the forum and its likely to stay that way.

✭✭True that. What would fix shields in general (without the need of this set) would be to just not allow shield stacking of Healing ward and Hardened ward.--ϟ-- Crows_Descend - Templar - Ebonheart Pact [PS4]&[PC] [EU] --ϟ--

Lenikus✭✭✭✭✭Nah, shieldbreaker NEEDS to be like that, otherwise a stamina build that dumps 5 pieces on a morkuldin/night silence wanna be set would be totally wasted, and people would just swap a piece of that for a molag kena or bloodspawn everytime they went in or out of combat.
...
But if you think about it, they should just add weapons of this set... then you can keep 4/5 in and then swap to like, a bow or something and burn down sorcs with that.Edited by Lenikus on February 21, 2016 3:16PM... Mai cave. >:30 -
Sharkano✭✭✭✭It's not that great anyway. Does limited damage and only works if target stands there spamming (non-helpful) shields.0

I use igneous for the major mending, so it's pretty helpful for me. It also gives me resources back every time I cast it. The downside is, I got wiped by 5 people, 2 of which were running shield breaker. It just ate at me through my tiny shield. Come TG, I foresee a lot of stam builds running this set (I know I will and a few others). Basically it's going to be more beneficial for stam DKs to drop igneous at this point, if they enjoy solo pvp at least.
Shield Breaker was introduced because Hardened Ward and Healing Ward were too strong. Unfortunately it was another blanket fix where weaker shields, and even shields that don't protect against physical damage were affected.
Removing the proc on annulment means classes like Sorcs can play more tactically. For example, they are fighting 2 people, 1 of which is using shield breaker, the other a caster. They could drop wards, stick up annulment, heal through the physical damage and not take SB damage in the process.
Having it proc on igneous is just sad, because it's more of a utility for DKs than a shield.2
