Right now we have block % but i never notice when i actually block,heck i don't even know how block actually works here, knights got block passives but for what? i don't see any difference on damage reduction or actual "blocking" of damage.

My recommendation is:

Show Block % on Stat Screen

Make blocks show as Block on screen

Make blocks deal no damage or Reduce more damage than actually dodge does

Make a Gem that add block % and is only being able to be put on shields but the gem will REMOVE any stat on the shield and SLIGHTLY reduce it def for the extra % on the shield.

Make % rate go up with every refine of the shield

Add a Block passive to Scouts only wearing a shield(xbow Scouts)

Make the % work to actually to increase the block rate of attack not increase the actual block rate of the shield so if we got 50% block on our stat screen we block 50% of the incoming attacks/skills

In that case then

- Scouts should have passive DEF
- Artisans should have passive Dodge

Yeah block rate should increase when yo urefine shields and magic tools and it would be nice to see a 'block' message when an attack is actually blocked.

As far as block goes, you don't "Notice" when you block, but you take like 1/2 damage... I know for a fact that I can get for say 600 against purples, but then about 2/3 of the time take only 200 dmg... (blocked)

a notice when something is blocked though would be great!

Yeah, I've been wondering that myself. What does block actually do? And on-top of that question, what does Magic Tool Defense do?

Are they both the same thing? Just one (block) halves meelee damage and the other (magic tool defense) halves magical damage? o-o

As far as I know Block reduces the attack power of an attack by an amount based on your character's Block Rate, which is not shown in the stat window.

I don't know if there is a difference between magic block and physical block.

It is shown in the stat window. Hover your mouse over your defense stat. It will show you block success rate and block defense. Block defense (might not be the exact words they used) is the amount deducted from the opponents AP when you successfully block their attack.

It is the same for magic tools.

The gem idea should be implemented if you ask me. It only adds block success rate to the person wielding a shield. And it can only be slotted into the shield, that too at the cost of whatever bonus stat the shield already had. It isn't unfair to the people who don't/can't use shields since they don't benefit from shield blocking anyways. The fact that you can get bonus stats like 40 movement speed and 30ap/30acc is far more unfair than the effect a shield blocking gem would have.
