Since the nerf that decreased our e shield in Update 4, there has been no word about whether or not something is going to be changed about e shield. Its a vital skill that mages need but if they implement a new version of e shield they need to base it on focus which from what I've seen, they have failed to do since Update 3. I have enough rings and a high enough lvl to live with using a shield of the bastion offhand, but I have very few negligible skill points which I would prefer to put in e shield, but I fear 6/40 for e shield simply isn't enough to make a difference nor putting those points in any other skill. So please can we get a fix for e shield and make it focus based?

They said they will look into other survivability options neglecting shield and to do with freeze. Currently, they are "testing"

Hi there, we have been doing extensive testing and are looking into ways to make energy shield a better gameplay mechanic, currently it's very binary either you have a shield or you die which isn't that great. There should be several strategies rather than having to have a shield all the time, so with that in mind we will be looking into any suggestions about this. As always we will also be listening to any requests resulting in balance such as this one.

That was a little over two months ago. Quite a lot of testing.
But yes, +1. At the moment, only the amount of skill points in the skill affects the amount of protection and not focus/ability.

Unfortunately to say, OTM is neglecting a lot of things: making e shield better, giving Hrungir loot, some other daily type quests, thats beyond this topic but still, not many things going on in regards to patching etc. hoping for something to pop up this Tuesday coming or first Tuesday of August
