- For each champion your side lost before the timer ends, 6% of your Kings health will be removed.

Combat and Careers

General Changes and Fixes

Guard now only uses block & parry for defense checks. So ranged attacks guard damage can be defended using parry. The attackers offensive stat and strikethrough stat for the attack type is still used though.

Blocking guard damage works just like before.

More info:
Blocking Guard Damage:

Code: Select all

If a random roll between 0-100 is lower than the result of the formula and the tank is wearing a shield, the guard damage is blocked.

min(<block rating> / <attacker offensive stat> * 0.2 * 100, 50) + <block stat> - <attacker block strikethrough>

Parrying Guard Damage:

Code: Select all

If a random roll between 0-100 is lower than the result of the formula, the guard damage is parried.

min(<weapon skill> / <attacker offensive stat> * 0.075 * 100, 25) + <parry stat> - <attacker parry/dodge/disrupt strikethrough>

For example if the attack is a magical spell, attacker offensive stat is intelligence, and the attackers disrupt strikethrough stat is used to reduce defenses.

An offensive stat of 0 is counted as 1 for the purposes of defense checks.
