Idea for counter to heal and shields

shields can be very obnoxious considering some of them have short cooldowns. I have an idea for an item that counters heals and shields. It would be an item that places a small AoE that you have to channel, it also has a short cast range. You guys can tell me if it is needed or not, please educate me.

a) Effect: null zone - After channeling for 1 second a null zone forms around target location. Anyone in the null zone has shields removed and healing reduced by 50%

feel free to tweak numbers or channeling time. I feel like it should have a channeling time so that it doesn't completely negate enchanters; it would be too easy.

Just be sure to name it after me ;)

Healing is already countered by grievous wounds

Damage counters shields. Shield are just temporary health gain. You have 2 choices. Break it with damage or wait till it expires.

I like the idea of an EMP for shields, but the anti-healing thing isn't needed. We have grevious wound items, but people are just too stupid to remember they exist.
