Shield health = amount of damage the shield can take before it breaks
Resistance : reduces damage the shield takes (might work the same way as armors, I am not sure)
Axes and any weapon with the 'bonus against shields' ability ignore the shield's resistance (resistance counts as 0). This means against Nord Einerjars for instance, Resilience is better thanks to its high shield health.
Shield skill : each skill point reduces damage to the shield by 8%. for instance a hit which would deal 50 damage if you have 0 shield skill deals 26 damage if you are a commando (6 shield skill), and 14 damage if you are a pavise champion (9 shield skill)
