I have expanded the general info about Damage shields, although I'm not happy with the result yet. Officially, only the first type in the list is actually referred to as "Damage shields". The first question is: do we want the article to deal with only the first (official) type of damage shields or with all of them? If we the choose the latter, the next problem arises: The second type also includes effects which don't actually deal damage, such as  [Gift of Arthas]. As a result, we can choose to remove those items from the list or to include them, which would cause the name of the article to be inappropriate. --bfx (talk) 12:09, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

As there was no reaction, I arbitrarily made a decision. Damage shield only keeps information of what Blizzard apparently considers damage shields. Everything that is not connected to damage shields in the strict sense (but behaves similarly) has been moved to Reactive effect. I intentionally left out "damage" in the name of the new article so that non-damaging effects can be included as well. --bfx (talk) 10:32, 23 June 2008 (UTC)
