Ok, I have tested and can confirm the new auto-block does NOT require energy. It WILL use energy if you have melee channeling ON, which is now a TOGGLE in Melee 2.9999999...

So, the original poster is incorrect. Auto-block does NOT use energy.

On a side note, since Hildryn uses her shield power to melee channel, blocking a lot of hits while channeling WILL DRAIN HER SHIELD REALLY FAST!!! It will still reflect that damage back to enemies, but the cost will be great. So remember that if you play Hildryn.
