Blizzard is considering a change to Block, for all classes, where it does not share DR with base armor. The next build should also increase the value of Upcoming Block and Consecration Effect Changes Spell_holy_innerfire

We are looking at a change to Block (for all classes), where it would not share DR with your base armor. This won't be in the next build though.

The next build will slightly increase the value of the Upcoming Block and Consecration Effect Changes Spell_holy_innerfire

Mastery: Divine Bulwark. There's a disadvantage to having the mastery split between two effects, where each is weaker than it otherwise would be. But we also want to be careful with making Upcoming Block and Consecration Effect Changes Spell_holy_innerfire

Consecration's damage reduction too strong, where the damage swing in stepping in/out of it might be uncomfortable again.
