Question about shields

When you shield someone, does the damage the shield takes calculate the resistances of whoever the shield is on? Like if you have a 200 health shield, and then you take 100 damage, are you left with a 100 health shield?

All shields take a champions resistances into account when calculating damage taken. Just think of a shield as extra, temporary health.

Yes, the incoming damage is calculated based on the target's resistances first. Then, if the target has a shield on them, the resulting damage will be dealt to the shield.
