Elemental Aegis |

The secret to warding off the elements is to rely on your armor, keeping it between you and the blast. The warrior has learned this lesson well, and can anticipate magical attacks.

Turn the Blade |

While many warriors choose to endure their foes' hits, some prefer to deflect the damage instead. (This mode cannot be used at the same time as Elemental Aegis.) Defense: +10% |
Steady the Foot Upgrade Requires: Level 7 |
The warrior holds ground, becoming remarkably resilient against forceful attacks. Fortitude: +20 |

Resilience |
Passive Requires: Level 5 Requires: Turn the Blade Requires: Elemental Aegis |
Warriors trained in resilience have learned not to flinch from wounds, making it almost impossible to break their attacks, push them backwards, or distract them with elemental effects like mild immolation. The warrior will only be interrupted by attacks that deal so much force as to knock the warrior completely down or that cause lengthy elemental effects. Knockback resistance: +100% |
