Something is wrong with the picture...

Why does the Stam/Pdef rune suck so much compared to the Stam/Mdef rune? 50 Pdef is so small that even if you have Block on all your gear, the Pdef increase might as well not even be there. I won't say 450 Mdef is a lot, but at least with a couple runes you'd see a small increase...

It may be because mdef is hard to acquire unless you are a healer. Most dont stat wisdom, but stamina has direct benefit to all classes. To make up for it, they release a stam/mdef rune that gives a decent amount of mdef and stam, so its worth while for most classes to use for the stam, and some mdef? Idk, fero is probably better with 45 stam/292 hp so that argument might not be valid. :\

Not just Fero, but Tyrant is even better for Stamina and Hp.

Like I said, my argument was kind of weak and i was just trying to follow RW logic :|

To channel a certain green bunny: It's obviously because they can't have Rogues having to go up against MORE pdef.

But seriously, honestly I've never noticed before how low the pdef is in my blocks. Block X only has 92 pdef. That is pretty pathetic xD

a whole 92 pdef!!! NERF!! NERF!! NERF!!


/sarcasm off


if you didn't get it: i am agreeing with most of the people here. pdef on blocks is really negligible. heck, i bet you can get more effect from raising ur defense skill, and who the heck even knows what that does?
my r/p can outdps r/m. your name is stupid.

mages should stack dex. word.

Stam/mdef was invented for pvp tanks since they already have sufficient pdef, but mdmg still hits them like a truck.

It extremly suits ch/m, with its 100% more mdef elite skill :thumbup:

There are plenty of Blocks all around the servers. If new runes won't be better, ppl would not buy them, aka no $$$ for game forge. Sounds like a good explanation to me.
half retired until gameforge fix server lag.

For high pdef runes try Dauntlessness with it's awesome wisdom bonus and just so you know not a good comparison between block and enchantment.

Could ask the same thing about Shield and Dauntlessness right?

So many mages in SW must have magic defense.

Well honestly Enchantment and Dauntlessness are upgrades to Barrier and Resistor runes, do not think they really have come up with an upgraded runes for Block and Shield yet.

they did not sell the enchantment runes in the past in CS, but they they could be build using the arcance transmutor and basic runes, whereas the wall runes couldn't be build (at least not since ch3) and only be bought using diamonds.
i guess when they brought enchantment to the CS they forgot about this difference in costs for tier VIII... and offer them the same level as the wall now...
