Divine Barrier

Healer skill · Shieldcraft line · tier 2

Beta 0.7.2

The attacker's weapon sinks into the light and gets stuck, until it falls on its rear.

It is only used in combat once it is placed on the hero's active bar, and its 12 s cooldown is before cooldown reduction.

Values by rank

Divine Barrier scales with Absorption. Its value at each rank is 1.2 + 0.8 × rank:

Rank12345678910
Value22.83.64.45.266.87.68.49.2

The value is the game's internal number for this skill.

in combat = round(value × skill power × 5 × max(0.35, hero damage ÷ 600))
hero damage = Attack + all elemental damage
skill power = 1 + 1% per point in the other Shieldcraft skills + 2% per rank of each skill that boosts it

The damage factor has a minimum of 0.35 and no maximum. A hero with 600 damage and no line mastery or synergies gets the listed value × 5; how it becomes damage or healing per hit depends on the skill's type and timing.
