It does NOT increases all shield damage reductions to 100%. Just fought Fume Knight using this sorcery + Havel's greatshield + Baneful bird ring (to block all his attack without draining stamina), and he STILL deals some damage to me when i'm blocking, even with this sorcery up (actually, i havent even noticed the difference in damage taken, only stability boost).
