It's block parry, in other words you have more chance to avoid block against a shield user. Kind of opposite of critical parry on shields.

Blocking ratio, reduces the chances somebody will block you with a shield.

It just reduces, doesn't completely remove the chance of hits getting blocked.

Of course glaiver can block. But it's not because of the block 60(100%). There is a skill in Fanning Storm series that make it possible to block 32% for 15s.
The blue in weapon is a block parry.
Ex: if a blader has 20 BR from his sun shield, and has 8% BR passive. His blocking total is 28%.
- 28% that a "BLOCK" word will occur
- 60% your weapon will stop the "BLOCK"
So his total BR will be reduce to 28 * 60% = 16.8 => 16 BR

BR 100 is achievable on 8d weapons, so the formula has to be incorrect, none the less it has a big effect on the amount blocked, and fanning storm only works on magical attacks :wink:

No it is not.

It means that you get less BLOCKS from someone with a shield

Only shields block.
The block ratio on a weapon means the enemy will do less blocks on you.

Wanna bet that you can block mag attacks with spear or glavie too?

blocking ratio = reduce block from shield esp blader opp or 1h
critical blues = reduce critical from weapon

Legaire · **Joined:** Jan 2008 **Posts:** 17

can someone confirm the formula again.
coz its right, 100 Blocking Ratio is obtainable on 8D weapons.

btw its 2 different thing, bout glavie skill blocking and the blocking ratio blue on the weapons. Stop confusing them together as the same thing.

I remeber there was someone say: anti block is the oppsoite of your block
So if u have a weapon block 60(100%) and enemy has shield BR 17(70%)
Formula will be like this: 70-60=10 => BR 11(10%)
weapon block 100(100%): 70-100=-30 => BR 7(-30%)

I strongly doubt that's how it works. Because if you have 0%block on the shield (10) and 100 block perry on the weapon (100% on 8D), would that mean you have -100% block = 0? No. Because I have br10 and I block people with 100% blue.

So that's definitely not how the formula works. You can't just assume the block perry is a percent value, and subtract that from shield % value, especially when on a sun 100% is completely different than 100% on regular shields.

I declare your formula a failed attempt.
