Block is one of the four secondary defense abilities.
 +
 +
If the target rolls a block defense then 50% of the incoming damage will be absorbed and the remaining 50% will be passed on to the target. Like all other secondary defensive effects, this skill can only be activated if a valid profession linked weapon is equipped. I.e for a block defense to go off, a player must equip a rifle or a polearm. Chance to apply Status effects will still come through from an attack however as they are on a separate check. 
 +
 +
 +
Each point in a profession's secondary defense modifier (counter attack, defense acuity, dodge, block) seems to be equivalent to increasing the percentage chance to initiate that defense by 0.21 per skill point. 
 +
 +
Example: Master fencer = 105 dodge
 +
 +
105 dodge = 22% chance to dodge
 +
 +
 +
Likewise for center of being efficacy modifiers:
 +
 +
One-handed Melee Center Of Being Efficacy: 115 = 24%
 +
 +
 +
 +
If a fencer should initiate center of being, then they would in effect have a combined total of 46% chance to dodge an attack.

During Pre-Cu the teras kasi defense acuity seemed to have an adverse affect applied to its secondary defenses.  It's COB state only gave roughly 22% chance of a secondary state to go off.  This seems to indicate that only its efficacy mods were taken into consideration by soe for whatever reasons. This is possibly a bug and might should be remedied so that TK's share the same defensive chances as the other professions.

Skill Mod Details

Block is one of the four secondary defense abilities.

If the target rolls a block defense then 50% of the incoming damage will be absorbed and the remaining 50% will be passed on to the target. Like all other secondary defensive effects, this skill can only be activated if a valid profession linked weapon is equipped. I.e for a block defense to go off, a player must equip a rifle or a polearm. Chance to apply Status effects will still come through from an attack however as they are on a separate check.


Each point in a profession's secondary defense modifier (counter attack, defense acuity, dodge, block) seems to be equivalent to increasing the percentage chance to initiate that defense by 0.21 per skill point.

Example: Master fencer = 105 dodge

105 dodge = 22% chance to dodge


Likewise for center of being efficacy modifiers:

One-handed Melee Center Of Being Efficacy: 115 = 24%


If a fencer should initiate center of being, then they would in effect have a combined total of 46% chance to dodge an attack.



Potential bug NOTE:


During Pre-Cu the teras kasi defense acuity seemed to have an adverse affect applied to its secondary defenses. It's COB state only gave roughly 22% chance of a secondary state to go off. This seems to indicate that only its efficacy mods were taken into consideration by soe for whatever reasons. This is possibly a bug and might should be remedied so that TK's share the same defensive chances as the other professions.
