Not quite.

When you use Pyric Bulwark, you gain the effect of Physical Shield for 3 minutes. However, the effect will wear off immediately after the first physical attack lands on you. For instance, the bunnies in Cape T. hits for ~25 damage. When I use Pyric Bulwark the bunny hits for 0 damage and the effect wears off (also works on special abilities such as whirl claw). It's not a stoneskin effect.... It simply seems to negate all Phsyical Damage from the next attack that connects on you. Magical Abilities will still go through Pyric Bulwark, skeleton was able to hit me with black cloud for 27 damage and Pyric Bulwark remained in effect.

Pyric Bulwark stacks with Stoneskin and Magic Barrier.
I cast this spell with 480 Blue Skills and it still only blocks 1 physical attack... Honestly I would have no problem if this was a regular spell with a 1:30~3:00 recast but putting it on UL's 5 min recast makes it a tad bit underwhelming.
