Dodge Rating gives shields max boost? But Skills?

Can a dev clarify how this is supposed to work? I've tested this and I never see the blue bar moving.

Should the +dodge in harb boost the max shields?
Should blazing lights +10% dodge boost the max shields? Seems like this should be very apparent and massive.

Since we are never seeing the blue bar move, is there a way to check the actual shield amount numbers?

Thanks
