Not as much as counterattack or dodge does but it does give you more of an edge. hard to cap though unless you are rifle/pike. Works much better when used with COB (pikeman side) rather then rifleman side.

i got +18 block thru all my attachments giving me 98block altogether. If i take vayerbok it puts this to 120. I notice a huge difference with this. I block almost half of all attacks

Block like all regular secondary defences is defeated by higher accuracy opponents. You block like mad vs low level PvE content and rarely block vs high level PvE content. In PvP you will rarely if ever see block work unless you are capped and running a CoB as a pikeman/

What she said. As a rifleman commando, for me, its all about damage output. make sure you stun your opponent, dizzy them, and then posture down (if you have ranged support) Stafeshot 2 is wonderful, if you are speed capped, othewise use flushing2 or HS3. I prefere to use SS2 because when they close, I can whip out the flamethrower and lay some massive fire dots on them.

Pikeman/Rifles here. I haven't PvPed enough to notice, since I finished up Pikeman tonight, but it seems pretty nice.
Also, Cpl_Fisher, your sig rules.

CoB works wonders if you're a block capped pikeman - sometimes I can block LS/force attacks in pvp. lol
