Description
|
|
You can protect yourself from any attack of the enemy in close-quarter combat by using this Defense skill. Remember that, while Defense is a way to protect your body, it also lets you retaliate. Successfully defending yourself disrupts the enemy's flow of attacks, opening themselves up to your attack. If you determine that you are on the defensive during a battle due to the one-sided attack of the enemy, you can instantly turn the tide of the battle by using this skill. Don't be discouraged even if your enemy does not lose his flow of attack, but persistently lead him on to spend his energy. After tiring out the enemy, administer a quiet and calm strike. Defense is the most effective preparation for your attacks.

Details
- When active, it boosts the Defense and Protection of the user, and allows the user to block one enemy attack.
- Defense can only block one hit, so be wary of Multi Aggro.
- This skill only increases Physical Defense and therefore Magic attacks' damage is not reduced.
- While defending, the user will be slowed to a walk.
- Being hit with Defense loaded will negate stun, allowing retaliation.
- Users must wait for the Defense animation to end before they can retaliate.
- The actual defending animation varies between Weapons, Races, and whether or not a Shield is equipped in the active slot.
- Using Melee attacks against a target with Defense loaded will result in the attacker's attack sequence being interrupted.
- Poisoning does not occur if the target successfully Defends from it.
- Mirage Missile shock effect does not occur if it is successfully blocked with Defense.
- Using Defense with a shield passively increases Melee and Ranged Defense.
- Smash, Assault Slash, Firebolt, Fireball, Thunder, Ice Spear, Blaze, Hail Storm, Magnum Shot, Gold Strike loaded more than three times, Drop Kick, Pummel, Dischord, Wire Pull, Puppet's Snare, Act 1: Inciting Incident, Act 2: Threshold Cutter, Act 6: Crisis, Act 7: Climactic Crash, the shockwave from Act 9: Invigorating Encore, Spirit Weapon Awakening, and all Alchemy, Monster, and Pet-exclusive skills will ignore Defense. However, damage taken is still reduced.
- Firebolt will still knock down a shielded target using Defense.
- Thunder's and Ice Spear's stun and freezing effect, respectively, are negated by a shielded target using Defense.
- A shielded target with Defense loaded will not be knocked down by Magnum Shot or Gold Strike.
- Water Cannon only causes knock back against a Defending target at close proximity.
- Starting at Rank 5 surrounding party members gain a defense bonus while Defense is active.
- Defense has a cooldown of 7 seconds, which occurs after successfully defending an attack.
- "Defense" (stat) itself subtracts damage from the base damage received.
- "Protection" (stat) reduces damage received by the specified % after Defense is calculated. It also reduces the chance of an opponent successfully landing a critical hit upon the user.
- Every point of protection reduces an opponents' before-max critical hit chance by 2%.
- Damage received is as follows: (Damage - Defense) * (100 - Protection) / 100 or just (Damage - Defense) * (100% - Protection%)
- Ex. If you had Def:20/Pro:10 and received 200 damage, then it'd be (200-20)*(100-10)/100 = 162 damage received from a hit.
- The Additional Defense and Protection from Activation is applied after the first series of Defense/Protection calculations.
- Ex. If you had Def:20/Pro:10, activated Human Defense Rank 5, and received 200 damage, then it'd be ((1.00-0.10)*(200-20)-46)*(1.00-0.17)=96 damage received.
- Since shield rebalancing, an equipped shield provides additional melee only Defense points regardless of Defense activation or not.
- Extra melee defense from shields is calculated in after the normal calculation if the user is not defending.
- Defense has very high Skill CP; 2nd out of all melee combat skills. It is suggested that this skill shouldn't be ranked too high early on, as it may disrupt proficiency/skill training. It is, however, a valuable survival skill and worth ranking early on to help survivability despite the CP increase if you mostly use melee skills.
- Defense cannot be used with a Lance equipped.
- Defense will not be canceled when the player is knocked back.
- See Standard Battle Tactics, 1+Defense, Def+WM, Ranged+Def+N, Ranged+Def+WM, Mag+Def+N, for strategies to use in battle.

Obtaining the Skill
- Complete the Beginner Quest: "Fighting Lessons".
- The skill will automatically be ranked to F.
Or, alternatively:
Training Hints
- Defense is easily trained by getting a low-leveled monster (such as a Gray Town Rat or a Brown Fox) that hits you for extremely minor damage and using Defense after every attack.
- However, such monsters do not attack aggressively and must be provoked. It is highly recommended to use Rock Throwing, Taunt, or using and cancelling Enthralling Performance as they aggravate the enemy into attacking while not harming them.
- The requirement "Successful in using a special skill to attack a defending enemy" means to use Smash, Magnum Shot, Firebolt, Water Cannon or Assault Slash on the enemy while it has Defense completely loaded.
- To fulfill "Observe the enemy using the Defense skill", you must attack the enemy (not with skills that ignore the Defense Skill) while they have Defense completely loaded.
