Working on block is great, but I find the problem not to be Block Rate (Blocking all physical attacks every 1/3 of a minute is fine by me) but the Block Damage Reduction. When blocking enemies around the same level, there is a huge damage reduction from blocking.
When we fight bosses, the damage reduction from a block is really low. If we reduce damage taken from blocking a hit from an enemy higher level than us, that fixes the issue with taking the same amount of damage as a Warrior.
