Can you answer a question is Divine Shield for paladins really going to reduce dmg by 50% in the next patch or have I just misheard this? To me this doesn’t make sense cause this throws the whole thing of how Paladins use Divine Shield. It would be no different than Divine Protection.

Divine Shield will remain at a 100% damage reduction/immunity for incoming damage. The difference will be that your outgoing damage will be cut in half while it’s active, that way a Paladin that’s fully immune to damage can’t burst out a billion damage of his own to gib someone while they’re unable to defend themselves.
So Divine Protection is 50% less incoming damage. Divine Shield is 50% less outgoing damage, but immunity to incoming damage. Make sense?
