Block

Improved Blocking

 * You strengthened your shield arm and trained to parry blows a little, thus you can now block somewhat better.

Experienced Blocking (20 Block required)

 * Be it with a weapon or a shield - you can block almost any blow with a rock-solid confidence. Also, when being hit while blocking, you feel the adrenaline rushing through your veins, granting you a slight stamina bonus.

Strong Grip (15 Block required)

 * You hold on to your shield like you hold on to your life. Blocking is even more effective and your equipped shield weighs less.

Elemental Protection (50 Block required)

 * You've learned how to block damaging spells so that you can now increase your resistance against them when blocking with a shield.

Defensive Stance (75 Block required)

 * You have honed your defensive movements to perfection. Therefore, blocking incoming attacks will no longer slow you down.

Powerful Bashes (25 Block required)

 * By gathering your strength for a short while, you can perform a much more powerful bash. Bashing your enemy like this with your shield or the pommel of your two-handed weapon will likely put him off balance.

Overpowering Bashes (50 Block required)

 * You put all of your power into your shield bashes, often overpowering your foes. They will stagger much more now and likely will even trip and fall.

Disarming Bash (75 Block required)

 * Sometimes you are able to hit your foes with your bashes so precisely that they drop their weapons because of the pain.

Unstoppable Charge (100 Block required)

 * When bull rushing with your shield raised, you are a tremendous force to deal with. In addition to likely being knocked down, your unfortunate enemies will also suffer serious wounds from the impact itself.
