I was thinking the same thing. On the spear version is says it increases blocking ratio against Magical attacks, but spear cant block anyway, so whats the point?

Actually they can block.


Yeh, it appears "Block" really strange when your holding a spear or glavie ^^

OT:

I woudld ALWAYS choose the physical defence over the % block. Think about it, its only a percentage. So, you can still take normal damage and just get a higher chance to block. However, you still may not block. Having the physical defence OVERALL would be more effective as you still have a chance to block anyway. So it can be irrelevant.

The phyical defence is far my effective.

Then again, its only my opinion.

EDIT: I voted last option, "Im 12 and what is this". Seemed like the best option, im guessing so did 12 other people by way the votes are looking at the moment!.

It does. He said "INT attacks mixed with physical skills". For example, a spear nuker using Ghost Spear. Using physical def increase won't be too helpful in this situation since the nuker's damage will mostly come from the imbue, which is magical damage. While if you block the Ghost Spear (which is a physical attack), the imbue won't do any damage at all.

We can go on and argue it over n over.
Matter not if its weapon skill or nukes.
Once snow shield is down, ur archer goes down with it.
Every1 who has play this game long enough knows it.
Gear is everything in SRO, thats y i say provided you're at same lvl, with same gears.
Str and Hybrid builds does better in PvP.
Int build PvE.
Look in Characters Skills and Guides Tutorials, theres a guide for 70:70 Bow and Full Int bow.
Clearly stated, GOOD PVE Build, BAD PVP.
I had a CAPPED 70:70 ICE/LIGHT/BOW so i know how its like.
U can say u slain who n who, kill this n that.
Well mate, i tell u this one thing.
Full Int Bow SUX at PVP.
Off Topic, Check out my shitty bow plox.

Oh and what I would like to add, its awesome versus STR based euro builds with warlock subs. A Rogue/Warlock is very dangerous with that insane dmg. The block turns the table most of the times.
