The ability to Block is an important part of any battle. Units will block incoming attacks in two different ways based on whether they are Physical or Magical attacks.
Shield Block
All Physical attacks - Melee or Ranged - can be blocked using a trusted Shield. Shields must be equipped in the Off-Hand slot in order to use them.
A Shield's usage will depend on its Block Chance and the unit's own Agility (AGL) stat.
Tome Block
All Magical attacks - Spell Casts or Abilities - can be blocked using a Tome. Tomes are special defensive spellbooks used by Mages across Wendalle to defend them and their allies from incoming magical projectiles. Tomes must also be equipped in the Off-Hand slot in order to use them.
A Tome's usage will also depend on its Block Chance and the unit's own Agility (AGL) stat.
