Did they break paladin blocking?

Since this last patch I am noticing things that I would block just fine are taking their full affect now despite me blocking them now. Effects like the Hunt giantesses that would turn you into animals are still affecting me now despite me blocking them well in advance (blue barrier and all now) and the redcap effects like the AP charge sap or the thorns ability disable. Is anyone else experiencing this despite blocking fully now, because I am quite certain I was able to block and avoid those effects before this latest patch.

    Given that the shield working has been a crapshoot from the start, eh.

    Sanctuary is completely borked now. I'm beyond annoyed.

    I ran elol this morning and the red zones from lostmauth that I used to survive fine with my sanctuary up, it completely tore me a new one and died instantly. Even though I'm devotion, I was able to withstand wing buffet and even being pushed into the lava with my sanctuary up and I just took full damage and died like an idiot. My blue visual was up too.

    Now we have no functional tab. Awesome.

    ... and then they're wondering why people are scared of upcoming patches... sometimes i feel they break more then fix.

    Told you guys, it's gonna be a GF ver 2.0, now we can acknowledge it, it is. Same broken mechanics are coming to surface as with the GF's shield.

    The human race is a herd. Here we are, unique, eternal aspects of consciousness with an infinity of potential, and we have allowed ourselves to become an unthinking, unquestioning blob of conformity and uniformity. A herd. Once we concede to the herd mentality, we can be controlled and directed by a tiny few. And we are.

    They should just make it a toggle with a lot faster activation time.

    If you dont have arguments dont bother posting. Toogleable Sanct would allow us to cast other abilities while it's up. It would be a lot more useful in such state than current broken."GF shield wanna be".

    toggle would really suck, they just should make it more responsive and thats it

    its really nice to cancel some animations and i use while moving, a bit can be seen here https://youtu.be/XwFewrDfvLY?t=2m2s attack > sanct + move > attack > sanct + move ...

    also using encounters when sanct is up would be broken OP

    *eyeroll* You do realise that was a roundabout way of saying your idea was good, right.
