That gives 1350 damage absorb per 120 seconds (of course, with CDR it's way lower). I think that it's much enough. You can also shield yourself for 250 base amount and additional 300 AP bonus gives you 550 dmg absorb per 5 seconds (with CDR, lower). Now, think that 400 AP isn't that much yet. At about 3 lvl I can easily get a first blood kill taunting someone, using vorpal blade (which heals me) and shield myself, and then repeat.
except it doesnt work althought it is pretty.
the "5seconds shield" wastes too much stamina and needs to be with 40%cdr and only goes for 3 seconds and it will ba maxed as your last power so 500 dmg absorve when you are lvl 18 which, because you went ap, is nothing due to no resistances and low hp.
Ultimate has huge cd and a good base shield, no need to make it higher.
Taunt will be useless since will wont be able to engage as well as you should, you willprobably need your allie to engage and then go with ulti.
the Q will probably be strong but not worth it IMO.
Shen needz buff, i play him as jungler and even thought i can do easy jungle and be very scary for the enemy team, i still think shen falls to the late game.
What you said about the early kill its only because shen is powerfull earlygame.
