Shielded losses not offering retaliations?

I shielded last night, and had four losses overnight, but no retaliation options.

Is this the way it has always been, and I just never noticed? I swear I used to be able to retaliate against those that hit me over night.

Thanks.

    Nope, not if you're shielded
  • That's how it's always been. You don't lose points, and you can't retaliate. Been like that since shields were introduced, I think (but definitely from soon after if not).

    Thanks! I have rarely used a full day shield, so I must never have noticed.

    Somewhere, in a dark room in the bowels of the D3 offices, a group of men are sitting around a table wearing black hoods and robes, reading that post, nodding and acknowledging to one another, "Shield cooldowns... working as intended", and cackling maniacally...
