All they had to do was make shields critable without being able to crit themselves. All the other changes with max health capping, armor resist integration, and cast times is silly. Who cares if shields are OP in pve, at this point if they want to balance pve they should rework CP, not abilities. Plus with how high inpen gets in PvP it wouldn't have even been that big of a nerf, again thanks to CP. Just rework the system or stop increasing points like I suggested 6 months ago.
