Runes on BloodStorm

[Herby]

Herby, I sound like a noob but can you tell me appox how much does block lower the damage taken? I was under the impression it didn't lower it much and that counterstrike was the only real benefit . I will admit there are still a few things I am not clear on in this game lol.

Block lowers physical damage taken by about 50%.

I mean when your Hero does block an attack, it does not generate morale for himself.


So, lets say your Hero does his skill attack this round, if the enemy hits him next turn, he will get to do another skill attack the following round.


However, if you block it, you do not generate morale, therefore you lose your skill attack next round.


Herby, I'm contemplating it as having Adamanti's 1k Strikes going off every turn for 2-3 rounds of combat early on in Heroics will help your other heroes kill off various minions earlier. And yes I agree, the later bosses 1 shot my squishier guys haha!

If your Adam has lots of HP, and the enemies hit for squat damage, then having no resistance will help.
But for serious enemies, or if Adam is hit more than once on the first few turns, having resistance will still help keep him alive for the next turn's skill shot.

I've never seen a skill attack blocked, I run zero break on blood and that's even vs high block rating heroes in pvp and any boss. (Currently on pursuer elite).
A block rune on the other hand is awesome on blood... anything that takes his hp down but low risk of killing him is a good thing.

have you gotten past Pursuer quest?? I am so stuck there!
