- Iron Skin I: Increases the amount of damage you block by 4%.
- Iron Skin II: Increases the amount of damage you block by 10%.
Iron Skin makes blocking attacks more effective, reducing the damage you take while blocking.
Patch Notes[edit]
- Reduced the amount of additional damage you can block from Rank I of this passive to 4% from 5%.
- Note that due to how percentages are calculated, the total damage blocked with this rank remains unchanged.
- Developer Comment: Since block values can only be whole numbers, a 5% bonus was increasing block's 50% damage reduction to 50 * 1.05 = 52.5. Then, it got rounded down to 52%. This change helps clarify the proper amount of bonus you get. Note that Rank II of the ability still gives a 10% increase which equates to 55% damage blocked (50 * 1.1 = 55).
- Note that due to how percentages are calculated, the total damage blocked with this rank remains unchanged.
