Question on Snappy's Arcane Ability

[lissil]

Snappy's AA
Hallowed Shell: Grants all allies in range a sheild which protects against incoming damage and heals players on removal by half of damage absorbed.

I tried using it's AA on cities and it lasts about 10 seconds. However, when I used its skill in the middle of mob fights, it lasts 1-2 seconds. I tried again and again to check, it always happens. I also tried using the AA in maps when I'm not fighting mobs. Shield lasts for 10 seconds too. Is Snappy's AA sheild duration dependent on dmg absorbed?

Is 'Snappy' the pet Scorch?
Yes, his shield has a time limit--just as a mage's shield will go down after it reaches its time limit.

Snappy is different from scorch.

Guess it will be one of my pets that I almost never use.
