Holy Shield versus Lightning Shield

[Rinnhart]

I would really like to know the so-called "easily achievable conditions and combinations" the devs are talking about. Because I have played a protection-spec'ed paladin my whole (virtual) life now. And I have used Holy Shield in PvE and PvP alot, but I have never experienced any overwhelming advantage even with +spell damage equipment.

Another point is that the only classes that are affected by Holy Shield are warriors and rogues since they are the only ones who attack you with melee. Even a shaman can reliably tear me down without touching me once.

Why wouldn't they plow into melee with you? It's not like Holy Shield doesn't have a fantastically obvious spell effect and can't be purged like everything else.
