    It does take effect before your damage shield but it technically does not make the shield stronger, just reduces the damage it takes.

    Every percentage mitigation increase or percentage damage debuff applied to enemy makes shields stronger and by stronger I mean that enemies will have to use more attacks to outdmg the same shield.

    It’s notable though that it’s not really easy to get major protection on a shield without risk or running not ideal sets. Pirate Skeleton was changed for example that it only procs if you take damage to your health bar. The previous version where damage on the shield was sufficient was a bit OP admittedly.
