Notes
- Additional TP from this trait will be added to the normal TP you gain from taking damage (~2, depends on monster delay).
- This trait prevents spells from being interrupted by a blocked attack. Note that if a monster attacks multiple times in one round, all attacks must be blocked.
- This trait was recently changed on the test server and no longer requires damage be taken by the unblocked attack (minus Phalanx), but you still gain the ~2 TP for the "hit" that did 0 damage.
- Stoneskin still prevents gaining TP.
- Shield Mastery does not prevent or reduce the damage taken by Additional Effects that an attacking monster may have, nor does it prevent their Status Effects.
- Equipment that gives Shield Mastery +N increases the TP gained when blocking by N
