Additionally, the user’s main combat stat is reduced to 2, in exchange for 2 Block Tokens. If the user chooses to move, or this block token is expended, Turtle Up goes on a 1 Hour cooldown. This temporary reduction of main combat stat cannot be reduced or negated for as long as Turtle Up is active.
