My first impression: I block low Mobs very good (3 greens at once never landet even one hit). But higher Mobs i need more testing, i got hit a lot, dant say if its better or worse than before.

Block just gone after 2nd reboot?:(

You sure it works? I've got 30+7 shields and am attacking yellows.

Ten fights, one block.

ok, im still a bit irritated.

regular the blockrate is modified by dex and qui (dex the block chance, qui reduce the delay to the next block)

i remember that i blocked ca 60-70 % vs players at the same lvl in rvr, when i had dex 200+, qui 200+, 42+11 shield, MoBlock 4

so, how is it now in real rvr test? does we have some luri hero with cap dex ? or some saracene armsmen? or kobold warrior?

i tested just my lvl 10 def char with shield 8 and dex 108 (that should be more as the regular def char should have at lvl 10), and i can count the blocks since char creation at 1 hand.

does dex wont increase the blockrate at uthgard? is a shield spec char total useless?

My deftanks block quite well, even with lowspec, considering several xpchars, that i started training in shield recently....

At lvl 50, with 42+10 shield and roughly 250dex, without moblock, you can block around 50% of incomming hits, and wih 50+15 shield, mob4 you block roughly 70%vs 1 target, so you are capped. Didnt test it vs 2 or 3 enemies so far, but you can ask caroli, a mediumRRpally with a good blockrate. He usually fights several rangers/nightshades at same time at hmg.

ok, thx a lot.. so, the blockrate will be increasing with the lvls .)

Blocking is dex only.

I dunno, I'm only level 24 with 23 shields and I'm feeling pretty good about block.
