Does shield stance block all incoming attacks (including skills), or when it says attacks is it referring only to auto-attack. And if it's auto-attack only would it apply to all types (melee, arrows, wands, etc).

Shield Stance = 75% chance to block attacks.
Wand attacks, Melee Attack, Bow Attacks. (Includes skills like Penetrating Blow, Punishing Shot, Hammer Bash and such.)
