Scorch shielding

**Kakashis** · 02-23-2014, 02:03 PM

Does anyone happen to know if the shield is not immune to certain elements? I thought it was supposed to absorb 100% until it breaks, yet I noticed that I'm still taking damage while it's still up?

I would imagine that it is based on the mage shield which reduces damage by a percentage up to the max value.

Yeah it's like the shield in the spawn room after you revive. Its possible to damage through that shield too, but it takes a lot of dps.

The warriors HoR's shield is permeable too, I have hit a crit of 80-100 on it countless times.

I remember reading in a topic that had the math calculations and it said 66% damage it blocks till it hits the max damage for shield or time runs out.

66% is quite off from STS stating 100%! Hehe that is news to me

It is not confirmed by a developer..

Mine is up for 8sec, unless it's broken then much less. Just so that everyone is on the same page, before it's broken, everyone can confirm that they're still taking damage correct? Wonder if a Dev can chime in because I read that it's supposed to absorb all and not be a damage reduction up to the maximum?
