Yeah chosen are parry bots. I'm hoping to get 50% go 2 handed and spread crippling strikes around as much as possible.

If you're doingbitbright, you'll be taking damage all the time from guard. That toughness helps mitigate that damage in RVR.
No, it doesn't. Damage is mitigated by the guardee's toughness and armor, then the damage is split and the tank takes half of the damage as raw damage.

It was that way on official, yes.
You mitigate Guard damage through stacking Parry and Block (which is still bad, because attacks from Guard use your maximum possible block and parry chance, so Guard scales outrageously with character defense.)

ye that is correct guard attacks are easier to def but i remember if i took damage i always taken lol damage, must be due to hardly concession and Oppression? total of 30% damage less that should had apply indeed.
Also guard damage ingored eff like rampage, so at least you could parry damage from guard.
Had to be that way to let 2h tank to no melt...

THANK YOU.
You have no idea how many people think that a tank's toughness mitigates guard damage. I simply gave up trying to explain that guard damage can't be mitigated by the tank (other than parrying/blocking it).
