Whenever i use celestial brew and get the shield i still get stagger even though i have a shield active. I dont take damage but my stagger always increases through the shield. Is this intended? Does anyone else have this?
I think it is normal you still stagger damage which in return is being absorbed by the shield while it lasts.
I think this is intended so that you can still benefit from the purify buff it gives
Normally it shouldn’t since the damage is absorbed and it doesn’t “reach” you.
I think the damage that we stagger doesn’t “reach” us either until the dot damages us. So we technically take no damage to be absorbed before that.
Hmm. This needs to be explained by blizzard since it’s obviously not obvious how it works.
I think stagger is simply applied before the trinket. Which means that you receive damage from the reduced initial hit and the skill absorbs the stagger damage after too. From the effectiveness point of view that’s better. Even if you would still take stagger damage but the bubble kept taking the initial hits that would be fine and even better, making a large reduction to damage intake last longer.
