shield...
You can use it to block/stun over one enemy and still throw it after that (not sure about that). Can’t tell you why the block duration got reduced though

Static shield is currently the best PvP shield skill in the game. I can understand that for PvE you might trade the stun/double daze/projectile finisher for an extra second of blocking, maybe.
Hmm the tooltip does say 1.5s now. Good catch. Using a stopwatch though, it still seems to last 2 seconds. Boy if they change that to really be 1.5s I’ll be angry.
The reason it is not 3 seconds like other blocks (Shield of Absorption is not a block btw) is because it doesn’t just block. It has an assortment of goodies; daze, 2 stuns, projectile finisher. Any block that lasts 3 seconds doesn’t give you any other goodies like that. The only other block that does have goodies is Shelter, the Guardian heal, which is also 2 seconds.

Also, despite what the tooltip says, you can block more than one melee attack; it was changed a few months ago but the tooltip wasn’t changed.
hello everybody…
i must say that shield isnt bad on engineer… but… must say that it has a short block with static shield…
shield of absorption of guardian has 4s
shield stance has 3s
and statich shield before update was 2s, now its 1,5s…to be honest why cant we have 3s block? without bringing toolkit with us???
cheers
Your making an unequal comparison here. Our block Dazes any foe that hits us. The other professions shield skills do not have this. Besides, the clear, unwritten dev rule is, if the engineers get anything with olid strength to it in combat, we must nerf it. Apparently the felt when they made the daze last for more then one hit, that the duration needed a nerf.

Truly a great question. Even the refined kit doesn’t make any sense. It doesn’t last very long either. It’s like they don’t want engineers to be as defensive as other classes for some weird reason.

I feel like I fell asleep during the Seahawks game and I’m now somehow caught in some weird twilight zone were everything is backwards.
