do i like the change where the thing has a couple passives with an active yes i do. the main issue i have with it is the active is quite litterally useless. the durations way to short 3 seconds is nothing. youd think it could be so much better than this useless active with our same old passives its kinda lame. does anyone actually use the active?

    I use the active skill...when I accidentally fat-finger it.

    You're a Sorc tank?
    I have one and I do not concur with this belief as it's not fact when used on a tank... I can reactively mitigate a heavy blow and it stacks well with other reductions.

    Damage shields? You would refresh them proactively.
    Blocking? Tanks want this up as much as possible anyways.
    This skill isn't a long duration buff that sits on your back bar, that's just lazy.

    What is it with the number of people thinking that the active was designed for DDs in mind?
    Even the devs said that the patch would focus on improving tanking and healing roles for classes.

    I think it's meant to be an "Oh s**t* button, but I can't think of any attack that you could survive with 20% more block mitigation.

    The part that bothers me a bit is it doesn't list the passives anymore on character screen.
    Not a big deal I guess. But I like to see what Passives I have active. I have the same numbers pretty much that I did before. But at times it feels like I don't. I wish they didn't change it.
    What was wrong with it that they felt they had to do this?
    A lot of Summerset changes they made were so unnecessary. Don't even get me started on the stupid auto focus quest thing.
    GROSS.

    Yeah the stam cost seems high for such a small amount of damage mitigation over 3 seconds. You already have block up, so the 20% additional mitigation is very small when you factor in the other sources and how they work together in the overall mitigation formula. It might make more sense if the duration was longer.
