+1200 shield doesn't mean anything

+1,200 extra shields after you've debuffed enemy shields and even kill them using the same ability is not useless in any stretch of the word. 1,200 extra shielding is still a lot better protection than not having any at all. And if you're spamming Shield Polarize with a Max Efficiency build on a Corpus or Void mission, you're going to be replenishing that shield often anyway.

Mag was never meant to be an ultra tank using the same ability that already makes her highly devastating against the Corpus, and Shield Polarize was already a more effective AoE nuke against the Corpus than Crush, giving it the ability to turn Mag into someone that can out tank Rhino, aka the dedicated tank, is bad game balance. The change was necessary, and I'm saying this as someone who used and still uses Shield Transference ingame.
