Skill Usage

One of two stances that Warriors can use. Warriors that focus on damage-absorbing defense skills depend on this stance to fuel most of their fury gain through being hit and from melee swings. In addition, they gain a solid 10% decrease in physical damage taken and increased hate generation by 90% in exchange for dealing 20% less damage.

Notes

  • The skill can be learned by Warriors from using the scroll 'The Art of Defence for Warriors' sold in Eric's shop in Saliko Village for 5 silver.
  • Warriors gain 2.5 times more fury when being hit or missing an attack made by a monster, increasing the fury regeneration from 1 to 2.5 per hit/miss. Because of the way the numbers work, all decimal numbers are rounded down, therefore fury is recovered in patterns of +2, +3, +2, +3. For example, 2 (2.5) then 5 then 7 (7.5) then 10 and so on.
