The Oppressor

Mechanics

The You take 20% of Damage from Blocked Hits modifier is additive with similar modifiers found on Glancing Blows and Ritual basetypes like Brimstone Treads.

Other than taking damage from the hit, the mechanics of block are unchanged. A blocked hit still cannot apply on-hit effects, such as ailments or curses. The chance to play the block animation is based on the full damage of the hit.

By default, you take 0% of the damage from blocked hits. Glancing Blows makes you take 65% of that damage. The Implicit modifier on Basemetal Treads, Darksteel Treads or Brimstone Treads, and the explicit modifier on The Oppressor, makes you take 20% of the damage of blocked hits. If you have at least one of these, you'll take 85% of the damage of blocked hits. With all three sources, you will take 105% of the blocked hit, or 5% more damage than you would have taken if it was not blocked.

Item acquisition
