Assy in the works

[Winter]

As of 1.10 beta, blade shield no longer transfers crushing blow, knockback, chance to cast, hit freeze, flee etc that it used to do in 1.09. Same situation with blade sentinel (just that it never did transfer anyway)... blade fury in 1.10 beta transfers all those effects though.

Not too sure about open wounds though but if all those effects are not going to be transferred by blade shield and sentinel, I dount if open wounds would be transferred.

Crushing blow works well with any class that has the means to deal physical damage to multiple monsters in a short time.... builds like zealots, smiters, fury druid etc etc.

I can confirm that (unfortunately) these do not transfer. Quite a shame, as that plus the new damage bug renders Blade Shield a complete waste of a point, let alone more than one point.
