Here is another question - is the shield active duration only based on a timer, or does damage in anyway help bring it down? I've always been under the impression that shield is on a timer. I always see people blasting away, blowing cooldowns while the shield is up though which seems pointless, and even stupid because then when the shield comes down for the 5-10 seconds after, they don't have their big cooldowns (rage, BOM, focus)

The thing is that there are other aliens that put up shields... i don't remember which ones - but in AO2. It might be that those shields just last much shorter, but it feels like you can DPS through them... Any thoughts?
You are incorrect the shield provides him some help but not 100% my bird can hurt him with the shield up easy I have also killed him with his shield up. So the point you push is wrong
I have a level 53 bird 200 Dex and death set.
