Bicheon: Block Rate Increase Skill

[SkorpioN555]

According to the skill description the 15 seconds buff (Sun Guard Shield) increases the block rate of the shield by 43%, but only for physical attacks.
Is the description right or do this increased block rate also affect nukes or hybrid attacks ?

Can someone who has the skill maxed help me with this one ?
thx

Yes, I think the description is right.

but if it goes after the description how does it behave if u face a hybrid char in pvp using imbue and physical attack ^^ will the block affect the whole dmg or just the physical part ^^ .
the thing is ... when its not only physical attacks that are blocked ... can it be good for wizards ^^. i know most people wont put skill points in that skill -.- therefore its quite difficult to get some info ^^.

maybe someone has a low lvl char who can test it on magical mobs and physical ones ...

well ... when i m 110 and the sp wuest still give me that much i will skill it then ^^ just to find out . lol ^^

btw thx for ur reply ... see ya

I believe the buff affects your shields block ratio. Although I'm told that all chars have a chance to block attacks, it's just so rare that it isn't even worth counting.

Using a glaive you will never block, never ever ever. Unless you got a devil spirit with 1% br on it, then you can block with a spear or bow or 2h or staff. The skill increases the br for phy attacks, I think against Chinese chars it will just block the whole attack though.

Heuksal has a blocking skill but the block only works against magical attacks

I don't really think the sp is worth getting that skill. I would suggest getting the phys def increase. Seems to be a lot more handy.
