While active, the user can’t perform Basic Attacks, but gains a new action that replaces their Attack. As a reaction to an ally within Shield Wall being targeted by an Attack Emote, the user can use this action to grant them +5 to the minimum result of their defense roll, and if they fail the defense roll, reduce any -HP damage by half (rounded up, minimum 0). If the triggering Basic Attack is a Ranged Emote Attack, this action does not consume the user's action, and they can use it again on a different attack in the same turn. Shield Wall can be held for a maximum of 20 minutes, and once ended has a 1 Hour Cooldown. | ||

Shielding Point Buy is part of the Proficiency System. Its packs allow a Character to use defensive items, represented by shields, crossguards, magic tomes, or other similar items or weapons.
