Total Block

Warrior skill · Guard Line · tier 2

Beta 0.7.2

Shield high: for a moment nothing gets through, not even to those behind.

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.

Block is a rating rather than a percentage, so this is the rating the skill gives, times the skill power.

Block = value × skill power
skill power = 1 + 1% per point in the other Guard Line skills + 2% per rank of each skill that boosts it
