NAME
  shield block

DESCRIPTION
  This skill allows a warrior to use their shield to
  greater effect than would normally be expected. Instead
  of merely making them harder to hit, a properly-trained
  combatant can use a shield to block incoming attacks
  outright. However, this will cause the shield to be
  damaged over time, and may allow opponents with axes to
  break through the shield.

  Shield block, when practiced well, may also be used to
  block offensive projectile spells, such as fireball and
  lightning bolt.

You must be wearing a shield.

A useful defense if your opponent is wielding a weapon.

You can also block certain spells, such as lightning and fireballs.
