personal, because stiletto, no drains with shard of wisdom?
being that the druidic continues with his ability with shard of wisdom?

Vampire depends on physical damage in order for it to work.  SoW converts physical damage into spell damage, so it no longer works.

Druidic Staff's regenerate on the other hand always works even if you don't deal any damage (so the effect isn't damage-related), so it still works even with SoW active.

understood, so that's why, with deathstalker also nothing happened.

Question: I use Emerald / Reflective Shield, so spells should be reflected; I don't undestand why firebolts or deflagrations can damage my cards. Which are situations where spells ARE reflected?

spells that target you, not your cards.

Spell damage targeting you (the player, not the creatures, not the creatures, not the player's hand) is reflected.  This does not include healing with the exception of Antimatter'd creatures buffed with Shard of Wisdom.  Nightmare is not reflected.  Unstable Gas is reflected.  Purify is reflected when used by the AI/opponent but is not reflected when used by the player (the animation shows the spell being reflected but the effect still goes through); this is a bug which causes desyncs in PvP.  Spells will only reflect off of 1 reflective shield at a time (i.e. if you and your opponent have a reflective shield on the field and you use Fire Bolt on yourself, Fire Bolt will be reflected onto your opponent without being reflected by the opponent's shield).  The list of Easter eggs goes on and on.

There really isn't a simple answer to this, unfortunately, as it's not very consistent with what the wording indicates should happen.

Poison doesn't reflect, btw.

Therefore this ability is quite useless in normal PvP maths?

It's one of the more situational abilities, yes.  Being able to counter Shard of Wisdom (which arguably nothing else can do) is probably its biggest use right now.

Ok, thank you very much.
