Patch 4.2.2 - Hardened Ward and Dampen Magic morphs

Also, bastion needs to be reworked as shield damage resistance so that it actually counters shattering blows CP.

Right now it doesn't. And shattering blows CP still works. Extremely well I might add.

Bone shield synergy gets a 50% nerf; I wonder how long until the 103% of health DK leap shield gets hit. And the gratuitous Blazing shield nerf. That makes NO sense at all.

I’m on console so I can’t check but I’m assuming it works like this

Let’s say you have 18k health, your shield would be 7200 and if you chose Dampen Magic and you were wearing 5 light that should add 30% to the 7200 which would make your shield 9360 and if you had 10% in bastion it’d be 10296.

But if the 40% cap Zos add is applied after the bonus from Dampen Magic and bastion that’d make picking Dampen Magic or putting any points into the bastion star Totally irrelevant.

imo (i didnt read all of the posts so this might have been said before) but hardened should keep the same shield size but add extra resistances to the shield to make it effectively bulkier (or give the shield crit resistance with that morph) and dampen magika should add spell resistance to the shield
