Does PWS need SP at 3.3.5a to increase the amount of damage block?

Yes, it scales off spellpower. (main reason while disc stacks sp in pve)

Thank you very much!!

My spell power increases, but in the spell text the amount it absorbs stays the same, is it normal ?

The tooltip description is unlikely to change its text imo. The absorbed amount should definitely increase the more sp you have tho. You could always test this by un-equiping everything you have and see if the text changes or testing how much your shield absorbs withouth and with gear on.

Blizzard tooltips are useless.

Downloaded a shield tracker, tested with inner fire, on and off and it does change value with more spell power. Expect the tooltip to change tho. Thanks Guys
