on a side note, Arcane shield/wall is effected by Shieldwall and is too nerfed to really be worth it. imo. It should give 20% to the entire party, not 5% imo. I wonder if you had 3 mages and put Arcane shield/wall active on all 3 whether or not it would stack.
I was referring to the warrior skills Shield Defense/Shield Wall and Stonewall/Bulwark, not Arcane Shield/Elemental Shield/Arcane Wall.

I had Arcane Shield and the upgrades on Anders on my Nightmare run, but I almost never used them. I was more of a fan of Heroic Aura/Valiant Aura. Usually just used Arcane Shield when I had fights where I wanted a certain elemental resistance as high as I could get it, like against the High Dragon (I had 100% fire resistance on Aveline and Varric for that fight, and close to that on Hawke).

I'll probably get it on Merrill on my current run for the same reason...

The nice thing about Merrill, by the way, is if you use Blood of the First on her, it doesn't matter how many sustained abilities you have her run, because the spells she casts come from her health pool, while the sustained abilities are taken out of her mana pool. And the amount of mana she has doesn't matter at all; the sustained spells are a % of total mana, not a specific number, so you don't have to spend points on Willpower. I really wish she could get Heroic Aura, thought.
