The change to the way block trinkets proc will make the rare gigantic Shield Slam much harder to pull off. That said, Prot warriors (or paladins) are not exactly destroying everyone in PvP right now so we're not super freaked about this. The resilience change will also make it that much harder to wade into a PvP environment in full tanking gear (since defense doesn't help against spell crits). No doubt none of this will stop the flood of LOLZ SHIELD SLAM IZ OP videos for the next few months.
