hmm, im stupid and havent tested or anything, but im asking for all of you out there who arent stupid and can test this. did block get nerfed? i was looking at my combat tab and taking the usual 500-600 dmg from a jedi then i see "swings at you but you blocked it" then after i killed the jedi (im a cool BH ) i went back to that spot in teh combat spam. i looked up and down and didnt see anything that resembled 1/2 of the dmg that i had been taking without blocking.

my question is: did block get nerfed so it is able to stand up to dodge and counterattack (ie: 100% blocked, not 50%)? or did i just miss something?

It has always said that in Combat.. you still take half the damage.

i just purchased a +21 block AA, in a duel with a friend i blocked twice.
...looks like it's working about the same to me.

I have +140.. even without COB running I'm spamming the Combat tab with Block messages unless I'm fighting someone with really uber accuracy tapes.

I don't believe accuracy has an effect with getting past the block modifier.

Most definitely does. If it didn't, why would we bother with Snowcake fighting fencers?
