I have maxed HS on my level 73 pally. My shield has 163 def (base) with 52% block and 20-22 smite damage, and my total defense is 1545. When I cast HS, my shield still has163 def, but with 75% block and something like 89-100 smite damage... with my overall defense jumping to 7000+ ?! I guess the +370% def HS grants on a shield is instead applied on total defense. I can't believe this patch is in making for over a year and they haven't seen this....
An elegant weapon for a more civilized time. For over a thousand generations the Jedi Knights were the guardians of peace and justice in the Old Republic. Before the dark times, before the Empire.
