IV PLD93 -8

Notes

  • Reduces damage when blocking with a shield.
    • Reduces damage by a constant value regardless of shield type at all times.
  • This reduction is a direct subtraction of the trait value in damage taken on block. The tier IV trait is literally minus 8 points of damage on block.
    • This is applied before PDT reductions. Thus the potency of this trait is reduced by PDT. At 50% PDT you would only see -4 damage from the tier IV trait.
