Character Build - Block - Help

Blocking is a defensive mechanic that counteracts Hit and Reflected damage. When taking Hit or Reflected damage, whether this damage is blocked will be determined based on the Attack or Spell tags of the source of this damage and the hero's corresponding Attack and Spell Block Chance. When blocking successfully, the damage will be reduced based on the Block Ratio and additional damage blocked.

Heroes start with 0 Block Chance. The Block Chance includes the Attack Block Chance and Spell Block Chance. When taking damage, the corresponding tag is applied to determine whether the block is successful or not. The Block Chance from different sources can be stacked up to the maximum Block Chance of 100%

Heroes start with a Block Ratio of 35% by default, which can be increased up to 75%. After a successful block is determined, a corresponding amount of damage will be offset according to the Block Ratio.

Heroes do not have additional damage blocked by default. When both Block Ratio and a fixed Block Chance are available, the Block Ratio is factored into the calculation before the fixed Block Chance
