Mana Shield

Mana Shield is a skill only available to Mages, in the Arcane skill tree. By using mana, a Mage protects itself through Mana Shield. When active, there is a blue sphere around the user. When damage is inflicted on Mana Shield, the user of Mana Shield loses mana, depending on how much damage was received; Mana Shield blocks almost all the damage for the user. If used too much in battle, it'll leave the Mage with no mana. With no mana, the user cannot defend itself. Mana Shield deactivates itself when: the user has no more mana, or when 200% of the user's maximum mana was used to block damage.

The purpose of Mana Shield is to block a significant amount of damage with mana; this way allows Mages to take hits easier. Arcane Focus (Lv.1) increases Mana Shield's duration and efficiency greatly.
