Skill Description

This skill enhances your ability in supporting barriers.

Note: there is little point in including research with regards to max barrier resistance increases if it does not test at max barriers. Collate, discuss and confirm your information and research in Hall of Sages before posting your results here.

Data on this page needs confirmation

Effects

• Level 1-5 : +0.5 to current barrier resistance
• Level 6-10 : +1.0 to current barrier resistance
• Level 11-15 : +1.5 to current barrier resistance
• Level 16-20 : +2.0 to current barrier resistance

So does it go:

• Lvl 1 = 0.5
• Lvl 2 = 1
• 3 = 1.5
• 4 = 2
• 5 = 2.5
• 6 = 3.5
• 7 = 4.5
• 8 = 5.5
• 9 = 6.5
• 10 = 7.5
• 11 = 9
• 12 = 10.5
• 13 = 12
• 14 = 13.5
• 15 = 15
• 16 = 17
• 17 = 19
• 18 = 21
• 19 = 23
• 20 = 25

Bonuses

• Level 10+ : Unknown if existing.
• Level 15+ : Unknown if existing.
• Level 20 : 83% at 1.85% or 2.5% bars

Level by Level Effect

• L1 : +0.5 to current barrier resistance
• L2 : +0.5 to current barrier resistance
• L3 : +0.5 to current barrier resistance
• L4 : +0.5 to current barrier resistance (75% with 2.43% Barriers)
• L5 : +0.5 to current barrier resistance
• L6 : +1.0 to current barrier resistance (Max resistance = 76%) (confirmed to be at L6 and not L7)
• L7 : +1.0 to current barrier resistance
• L8 : +1.0 to current barrier resistance ( 75% with 2.31% of Bars )
• L9 : +1.0 to current barrier resistance ( max 77% ) tested by ericvas on Solo Jan 2009 (77 @ 2.36%)
• L10: +1.0 to current barrier resistance (75% with 2.24% of Bars)
• L11: +1.5 to current barrier resistance
• L12: +1.5 to current barrier resistance
• L13: +1.5 to current barrier resistance
• L14: +1.5 to current barrier resistance ( 79% without 2.5% of Bars )
• L15: +1.5 to current barrier resistance
• L16: +2.0 to current barrier resistance (Max barrier resistance = 80%)
• L17: +2.0 to current barrier resistance (Max barrier resistance = 81%)
• L18: +2.0 to current barrier resistance (Max barrier resistance = 82%)
• L19: +2.0 to current barrier resistance (Max barrier resistance = 84%)
• L20: +2.0 to current barrier resistance (Max barrier resistance = 86%)( 75% with 1.58% of Bars )/( 83% with >1.85% Bars ) (Not sure about it, forget or being changed)

If the last one on this list is correct, then barrier resistance adds a lot more than the 2.0 that it sows below. 2.5% = 75 is normal, meaning 1% = 30 resistance, so 1.58% should equal 47.4. 75 - 47.4 = 27.6 resistance. So according to what they wrote, at lvl 20 resistance they are getting 27.6 barrier resistance free. At high lands that saves a lot of mana upkeep saved per turn (= a lot of extra units for blue or black).

History

• This skill originally was a skill, but it is replaced now (by Legendary Artificer)
  • You could have higher maximum resistance from building barriers (more then regular 75 maximum).
  • You would have needed to build more than 2.5% barriers to gain this benefit, hence it was changed in January 2007.
• This skill has been made a skill (January 2007), allegedly it 'now gives free barrier resistance'.
