You shiver and feel strange.

Can someone check to see if Soul Shield actually works. To be honest, I can't
tell if there is any difference at all when I use it or if I don't. Even small
5k mobs cast through it routinely.

Well, I'm not a wizard and I honestly cannot claim that I'd know how it is
"supposed" to work, but personally I've always believed that "Soul Shield" is
supposed to directly protect against skill/spell drains and only by much
smaller chance from "curses". Maybe it isn't supposed to be this way, I agree
that it bears looking into.

Well, perhaps not coincidentally, I was skill drained twice thru Soul Shield
the next day (although admittedly by a larger mob). Is it too much to ask that
we can even find out what this spell is even supposed to do? Or is that
confidential |337 knowledge?
