You guys are kinda missing the point, I agree the threat is nice and nothing is changing about the threat scaling except the formula since you'd be blocking for more on raid mobs.

All Im talking about is the mitigation, nothing else would change, As it is right now, shield block rating is all but useless on our gear, we don't need to to block attacks because we already do block every attack that isn't dodged/parried or missed, and the only reason to up your block value at the moment is shield slam threat which is fine right now. Im pretty sure the devs don't intend for shield block rating and shield block value aside from the threat it produces to be useless. Especially if they remove crushing blows and change nothing else, we would need some kind of way to mitigate more damage(and paladins too) to come even close to the mitigation of a bear.
