Oseem, Dark Matter, & You

It's referring to shield block rates. This stat increases your block rate with a shield by a flat value. So if you had a 50% block rate, that augment would push it up to 58%. The augment maxes out at +10 from DM, so that's a pretty good augment.

Everything after this really only matters to PLDs, so if you aren't one, or aren't interested in PLD stuff, you can clock out now. lol.

Two things to note about this stat.

It's applied after reprisal, meaning that it doesn't count as part of the base value that reprisal modifies.

It's added before the block floor. so if your calculated block rate would have been 0%, with the floor pushing you up to 5%, then that +8 augment would take you from that calculated 0% up to 8%. Rather than building from the floor.

This means that against really high level foes, and when using shields with poor block rate, like Aegis it's possible for the block+ values to have reduced, or no, effect when you're below the floor.

Finally. My first piece of block+10. I soooo wish that MDT had been PDT though...


Also,

I didn't realize it was even possible to get +20 to base attributes. Too bad I didn't get some ACC, WSD, or multi-hit on there too.

I can attest to this...I've done many dark matter aug and majority end with some Pet Aug...

Yep every single herc pants or feet gets some sort of pet stuff only managed to get good magic attack like 2 maybe 3 times.

So 67 acc
9 (p)dt

the ultimate hybrid piece. grats bud
