Hey, everyone!
Since we are seeing a lot of questions regarding the recent changes in the way Shields work, we would like to elaborate on where we stand on this one right now.
The reason why we changed the mechanics in the first place is that we wanted to grant more value to stronger shields and not let weaker shields override them (we had been receiving requests to make this change for a while). However, it appears now that the modification that was implemented with the 3.40 patch release has resulted in certain deviations when using specific shields-bearing champions in some locations.
The change was supposed to make our game experience more comfortable and shields more effective. That's why we will implement a fix in this area in 4.0 patch release, which we plan to launch in the next week or so. What we are going to change with the next release: if a champion has a 1-turn-duration shield on, this shield will be replaced with a new one that lasts more turns. In all other situations, the shield with a bigger value will prevail.
We will keep working on improving this area to make sure that the shields replacement algorithms work most efficiently.
I know people ask about shield stacking and about shields in general so its good that Plarium (RAID) is going to address the mechanics surrounding shields
because when you have a couple artifact sets with shields and champions with shields all in play its nice to know that all is working as intended
been playing this game for a couple years and I often get disgusted by the way people talk in the chat and was wondering how to apply to the mod team?
