Using this skill will put circle 1m radius in front of you with (45 + 4.5 * Skill Level)% as Pledge percentage(refreshable). Everytime anyone gets hit in the Pledge circle, it will reduce this Pledge percentage by 10%. But if anyone gets knocked back in the Pledge circle, then that circle will vanish immediately.. Buff Effect in Circle: all Effects below will be divided equally when there are multiple people inside circle
When Pledge% reach 0% OR until anyone get knocked back. Damage Reduction for self: +(remaining Pledge%/10)%. Damage Reduction for party: +(remaining Pledge%)%. Damage Reduction of this skill takes place after Sanctuary and before Stone Barrier. Knockback reduced for self and party by (15 + 2.25 * Skill Level)% [
This knockback reduction will be doubled]. Damage Dealt% for self and party: MAX[Shield Refine ; (1 + Floor[Skill Level/4.5]) ]%
Damage Dealt% is additive with Brave Aura and Aura Blade. Also, only caster need shield to use this skill, teammates without shield can still get max dmg from shield refine.
When getting a knockback within the area, the distance can be reduced greatly, but the effect will end as the sword gets knocked away. Furthermore, ATK boost, knockback and damage reduction effect will be shared if there are multiple characters within the area, making the effect weaker.
Resistance to knockback increases further. Atk will increase further based on your shield’s refinement value.
ATK is misleading, it is Damage Dealt Bonus% like Brave Aura instead
