Notes
- Staple for AoE tanking/farming. Reflected damage can crit and is affected by armor and abilities/buffs which increase damage by percentage.
- Synergizes with Glyph of Blocking that increases block value.
Known bugs
A bug exists in that Rank 1 of Damage Shield does absolutely nothing, but Rank 2 works just fine.
*The recent patch (3.0.8) says it has fixed this error. Have not tested it, but, the notes say it.
Warrior
* Damage Shield: Rank 1 of this ability now works properly.
* Heroic Throw no longer triggers the snare from Mage Frost Armor.
