Because the way damage shields were working, it was causing sync issues between the client and server. They were put back to the original formulas, because they were allowing people to just zone, and have their timers reset. And that is much more of a problem, than having the duration be off. When we have more time, we can look into working out those sync issues, and then we'll see about nerfing the damage shields for ya.
