Level 99 Testing

Looks like they changed Shield Mastery, at least on the test server. I got this with Rounsey Wand/Sentinel's Shield against monsters in East Ron with Phalanx up:

  • Level 74 PLD: 4 TP/block
  • Level 75 PLD: 5 TP/block
  • Level 95 PLD: 5 TP/block
  • Level 96 PLD: 6 TP/block
  • Level 99 PLD: 6 TP/block
  • Level 86 RDM: 0 TP/block
  • Level 87 RDM: 3 TP/block
  • Level 96 RDM: 3 TP/block
  • Level 97 RDM: 4 TP/block

I didn't re-confirm the level of Shield Mastery II for Paladin, but I don't really feel it's necessary. I checked number 1 just using the menu. --Byrthnoth 15:22, 24 November 2011 (EST)

I went back today and checked the exact TP/hit. It is still probably base + the normal TP you'd get from taking damage, but now the comparison is done after Phalanx but before stoneskin.

  • 10 hits blocked with Phalanx up from a Wild Sheep = 61 TP
  • Stoneskin Shield Block = 0 TP still, though --Byrthnoth 20:51, 25 November 2011 (EST)

Did a bit of verification on WAR shield mastery levels.

WAR lvl99 50 TP/block(20 base) +30 WAR lvl87 39 TP/block(19 base) +20 WAR lvl86 29 TP/block(19 base) +10

So shield mastery II is level 87 for WAR, as JP wiki showed. Will remove verification tag. --Martel (talk) 16:59, 13 June 2023 (UTC)
