Player Heavy Stun

Players and their Minions usually cannot be Heavily Stunned, but players can receive Heavy Stun buildup where specifically mentioned while taking specific actions (such as raising their Shield, Parrying with a Buckler, or riding a mount). A player's stun bar only empties when they are not taking these actions or Heavily Stunned. While Heavily Stunned players cannot Block, Deflect or Evade.

Chance to Block

Chance to Block only includes modifiers that are explicitly chance-based. Guaranteed Block (such as raising your Shield) does not affect your Chance to Block.

Shields

Shields are armour items that are equipped in your off hand. While holding a Shield you have a chance to passively Block. Most Shields can also be raised to Block all incoming Strikes and Projectiles from the front.

Bucklers are a special type of Shield that do not grant any Armour and can Parry enemy skills instead of being raised to Block.

Bucklers

Bucklers are a special type of Shield that do not grant any Armour and can Parry enemy skills instead of being raised to Block.

Pre-mitigation Damage

Your Pre-mitigation Damage is the damage of your hits after all your modifiers to damage have been applied, but before the target's mitigation, such as Armour, Resistances or Blocking, prevents any of that damage.

The target's modifiers to Damage taken apply after their mitigation, so Pre-mitigation Damage also does not include the effects of those modifiers. However, modifiers that cause the target to take damage as a different Type occur before mitigating the damage, so are included in Pre-mitigation Damage.

Parry

Parry is a Skill granted by Bucklers that allows you to Block and retaliate against an enemy Strike or Projectile, leaving them off balance and inflicting the Parried Debuff.

Block

Skill Gem /5

Shield Charge

Channel to charge in the target direction. You will crash into enemies on your path, stopping your charge and dealing damage to enemies in an area, and extra damage to the enemies you collided with. While charging, your Shield is raised and you will Block all incoming Blockable hits.

Raise Shield

Raise your Shield to Block all incoming Blockable hits. Release immediately after Blocking when an enemy is close to perform a Shield Bash, damaging and Stunning enemies. While your Shield is raised you cannot be Light Stunned by hits you Block, but Blocking too much damage may Heavy Stun you. You cannot Evade while your Shield is raised, but Evasion instead grants an equal chance to avoid this Heavy Stun buildup.
