Bicheon Skill => Shield Technique

Just one short question.
The BR Increase Skill, does it increase the overall Blocking Rate for Physical and Magical attacks, or just for physical attacks like it is explained in the Skill description ?
Can someone with that skill test it at magical Mobs ?
I want to know it because i consider skilling it as buff against int based opponents.
^^ looking forward for some answers ...thx

it won't add extra block to pure magical attacks, like Nukes from Chn / Wizards. Melee attacks from nukers do fall under Physical attacks so those should be blocked. Correct me if I'm wrong.

I guess its just what it says; for 15 seconds you gain extra block rate against all kind of attacks .. or did you mean the last skill on the row (that passive block skill )

i meant the active skill ...the description say "increases BR for physical attacks" ... and i want to know if it really only increases the br against physical attacks or the overall br against phy and mag attacks

Or since you still got no solid answer, go try it out yourself.

money and skill are totally different things...plus why should the skill has both phy and mag i mean for example you can take a look at the cold's crystal wall, it only has phy def and the fire's fire tower or w/e it only give mag def.

i just wondered if its possible ^^ i mean a br increase is a br increase right ^^

castle shield, ironwall shield, and iron castle shield all reduce physical attack damage so you can take more hits. the others, mountain shield, giant shield, and sun guard shield increase your block rate of physical attacks. so you block more often.

none of them cover magic attacks and those will not be affected
