The Ability and Proficiency System
This page involves the Abilities and Proficiency system, which is a core part of how Combat Roleplay and "Competitive" Roleplay works on Massivecraft. To see an explanation of general Rules, Terminology, and Mechanics used on this page, read the Abilities page. To see a broader explanation of the Abilities and Rules used on this page, read the Proficiency Page. To see an indexed list of all Abilities, read the Ability List Page.

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.

Shielding Point Buy includes a set of abilities designed to protect the user from harm, and their allies.
