In a previous discussion, the issue of using shield block while raged was mentioned. Here's a log to prove it does work to protect the zerker from overhead and sideswipe. I pointed out the rage and the shield block working to make it as easy as possible for all of you lazy log readers out there. (I only included the relevant part of the log.)

  1. Me Raged Shield Block (Justice vs. Knights) -
    I don't think thats an actual shield block, i think thats actually you lacking combat style superiority and that was just the text saying he countered your overhead strike...i could be wrong though.
  2. deleteme Raged Shield Block (Justice vs. Knights) -
    that seriously needs to be fixed, among other things like volley
  3. Me Raged Shield Block (Justice vs. Knights) -
    I don't think its a bug as i said, i think its just the "attack of oppurtunity" part to it for using the skill at a time when disadvantaged.
  4. Hilemal Raged Shield Block (Justice vs. Knights) -
    Here's another possible bug for you which I'll have to remember to submit to the IMM's: a RAGED zerker can still DODGE a strike of faith. Not sure if this was intended or not though
  5. Me Raged Shield Block (Justice vs. Knights) -
    I've been informed that it doesn't count as style inferiority because when zerkers rage it changes to dual wield because of shield...so nm
  6. jerusai Raged Shield Block (Justice vs. Knights) -
    I did the same thing in that "fight" with Telis, and that is why I didn't overhead, because I knew I would get rocked. I already tried that on another raged zerker.
