Resonating Shield has restrictions on where or how it can drop.
Many Skills have had their base damage and/or damage growth per level rebalanced. Most of these changes are not specifically mentioned below as the changes are too widespread.
The mana cost for all Attacks, Marks and Warcries has been reduced, most notably at higher Gem levels.
