Shield

30px Shield creates a one-time-use shield for a target that nullifies damage once up to a percentage of the caster's maximum HP.

• If more damage is taken than the shield can withstand, the shield will fail and full damage will be taken.
  • For example: taking a 1,001-damage hit while having a shield that can withstand 1,000 damage will cause the unit to receive 1,001 damage, not 1 damage.
• If a damaging attack that would have dealt an affliction is nullified by a shield, the affliction will be nullified as well.
• If a non-damaging attack deals an affliction (for example: Volk's bombs when they are manually defused), the shield will not be consumed and will not nullify that affliction.

Shields usually cannot stack with other Shields, but a variation called a Divergent Shield can stack with regular shields. Divergent Shields otherwise act the same as regular shields.
