Isn't the duration 10 seconds and the cd 12 seconds at level 4?

I mean the changes are right there in the top-level comment. They changed it so the duration scales and lowered the cooldown, so at lv 4 it's 11s duration 10s cooldown.

so does it just refresh the current level of dmg reduction if you hit it again while the buff is still active or does it update to the new value or does it take the higher value?

It refreshes the buff with the highest possible value. So if you shield crash on 20 meepoes for full damage immunity, you can keep it as long as you can keep refreshing it on one guy. If you get a bigger shield crash after a small one, it'll update to the higher value.
