Weapon Block

Required Level: 12
Prerequisites: Claw Mastery
Synergies: None
Passive Effect: After developing this skill, an Assassin wielding two Claw-class weapons can use her blades to deflect incoming attacks, thus giving herself a defensive edge without using a shield.
Details:

  • Requires two claw weapons equipped.
  • Weapon Block allows Assassins to use two Katar (or Claw Weapons) while still having Blocking. Assassins that use two Katars will want to invest heavily in this skill. Even a 1% Increase in Blocking will provide a great amount of protection.
  • Weapon Block does not benefit from Dexterity or increased chance of blocking.
  • You will only block while standing still or attacking. Weapon Block does not work while walking or running.
  • Note: Whirlwind is an attack and weapon block will still function during the attack.
