Meditation & dmg-based shield (Magna & Nine)

1. It’s happened twice that I want to change a given epiphany, but the meditation triggers the SAME epiphany as one of the 3 options, which doesn’t make any sense.

2. When attack cards that are supposed to generate shield based on the dmg dealt are used against enemies with a shield,the card doesn’t generate shield (or generates less), which seems a bit weird. Enemy HP might not have decreased, but dmg is definitely being dealt, so this is a huge downside for bosses/enemies that always retain shield.

thats cause when dealing DMG to shield, you're not really doing any DMG actually, you're just hiting the shield, a force barrier, wich, by the game lore, makes sense

The Meditation being able to roll the same epiphany you currently have is a bit of a downer since it basically only gives you 2 chances at getting what you want instead so that would be a nice QOL change if it ever comes out.

When you attack an enemy with a shield and don't crack it, it doesn't count as dealing Damage. That's just how it works since damage is only when health is decreased, you can even test this with Veiled Thorn and attacking an enemy with a shield.
