It can be a 6k shield and keep the movespeed buff up even if the shield is gone which even fits the class design better aswell, mobility over facetanking, it doesn't need to be 16k at all, it's dumb design that it's like that in the first place.
No, it isn't the point because the discussion isn't about WAR.

Why don't you play nin in CC for a bit and then tell me its as strong as you think it is. Mudras are on a CD and you only get two. You have to choose all offense, all defense or a mix of the two and you CANNOT repeat skills. If you pop the shield its locked until you do a different mudra. You have to make a decision on what you want to do when you engage. If you pop the shield you lose killing power. You may survive, but you may also not be able to kill the enemy who for example say had a LB up that could potentially turn the fight into their favor?

You need to look at the kit as a whole and not just "derp they get 16k shield so its broken"
