    Yeah. I've actually noticed the % drops on the higher level monsters, but raises when you're capped in previous dungeons. So some type of level correlation has been added in to enforce us to keep upgrading our shields as we level up or has always been there but unseen due to the stats that STR and DEX provided. But I figured they would since if shields only grew, never weaken, eventually PLD's would have a 100% block rate with some crazy high mitigation.

    Because iirc blocks were up to about 30% even in FCoB. But it seems now that the 30% will only be seen with the tower shields. 20% seems to be the norm for the hybrid. I haven't used a small shield yet but I assume it would block for about 10%. In either case it would seem that tower shields may be the new best thing due to shelltron and balawk
