| Re: Why is Guarding skill so hard to improve? Actually you get eva skill ups even with utsu. Seeing how you'd evade or not. Shadow loss would proc as taking a hit. But since it was a shadow lost, shield and guard wouldn't kick in.
Guard and shield work on the same level, just different rates of procing obviously.
Parry without having massive evasion bonus kicks in as much as shield would. At least in my experiences as rdm and pld when taking hits. Though parry does proc as much as you would evade, or at least it seem when my whm parry when you add to the fact it doesn't have a native skill. |
