Dominance is a passive Wizard skill in Diablo III. It is unlocked at level 50.
Overview
Killing an enemy grants a shield that absorbs unsaved damage for 3 seconds. This effect can stack up to 10 times. Unlike other shields, refreshing Dominance will set the shield to its maximum possible potency, and each stack will increase its total duration by 0.5 seconds.
The amount absorbed scales with level, up to 2,476 at level 60, and 12,379 per stack at level 70.
"Why waste your own energy? Using your enemy's to protect yourself strengthens you while it weakens him. What could be more perfect?" —Ennead Sage Resko
