What does GTB block?
« on: January 13, 2008, 08:15:43 am »
I saw that using a GTB buckler Storm Gust does not make damage in me and I saw that Priest buffs and healing does not affect me.

But fighting with monsters I saw that they can mute me and in PvP I saw that Soul Breaker can make damage me.

GTB card does not block all magic spells so, what skills GTB really block?

Priest buffs are considered magic spells.

But they can use "Lex Divina" when Im using GTB.

And I dont know right now what spells are considered magic and what spells are not magic.

Some thigns GTB doesn't block
- Magic crasher
- Status effects
- Gravity field
- Soul breaker (It consists of magical and physical part, GTB only block the magical part)
- Pressure
- Spider web
- Frost joker
- Throw spirit sphere

Basicaly I think that GTB blocks things that use your MATK as damage and MDEF to reduce damage.

Good list, but perhaps is missing somethings...

There is that High Wizzard skill that removes all ur SP, is it Pressure? o.O

And Throw Spirit Sphere is phisical?

Another point: GTB was nerfed here in aRO? To not leave an overpowered card in game?

That's a Professor's skill. It's called SP conversion.

Yes.

No.

No, that's a Professor skill called Soul burn.
You're probably thinking of health conversion, it takes a portion of your maximum HP and replenishes a portion of your SP,

And Pressure is a Paladin skill which deals a fixed amount of damage it also saps a 40% of the opponent SP at level 5. You cannot block it, dodge it or reduce the damage in any way, except that Wall of Fog makes pressure miss 75% of the time.

Reviewing all the topic,

All the card effect is confusing, look that:

Basicaly I think that GTB blocks things that use your MATK as damage and MDEF to reduce damage.

Priest buffs and healing do not use MATK. So, this is not a good conclusion about the card.

Then what about:
GTB blocks attacks that use your MATK as damage and MDEF to reduce damage PLUS offensive & defensive support skills (Dispell, Soul Burn, Priest Support skills, including Lex Divina. It is blocked by GTB.). I don't know about songs.

That was a general rule that applies to offensive skills. Of course we can't say that it's universally correct since there are skills such as dispell and soul burn that don't use MATK or MDEF and they're still blocked.

But that gives a general idea on what GTB block, if you want to I can list all the skills GTB blocks because there isn't a one universal rule to cover all of them. There are basically only certain types of attacks in the game. Melee, ranged, and magic, then support skills Physical support, magical support. I'm guessing that in the code of each skills there's a line that defines on which category they go into. And GTB blocks everything going into the "magic" category. That's the only unviersal rule there is, other then that you can only list the skills it block or create some overly complicated rule.

As for this, GTB does not block energy coat, any of the BS buffs nor Paladin buffs. GTB doesn't block any skills that are used on your without targeting symbol. Nor does it protect you from status effects and some of them are indeed MDEF based. And songs are not blocked, they're not considered magical.

Fail.

I said that is the first post, the card does not block Lex Divina (u can get muted using GTB).

Sometimes I bring up new questions:

Does GTB block Frost Nova, Envenom and Petrify?
... and songs???

Doesn't block envenom, stone curse[It blocks the skill, yes. Not the status itself], and songs. /ok
