[BUG] Guarded Strike
Elemental Forums
It looks like Guarded Strike is not providing its auto defense bonus. I noticed this during gameplay and then found this:
<StrVal>UNitStat_Defense_Pierce</StrVal>
I, for one, find Guarded Strike kinda worthless and I'm wondering if this bug hasn't popped up because people just don't use it. Along these lines I played around with Shield Bash as a 100% damage Guarded Strike.... it wasn't flashy, but it sure was useful.
And, while I'm suggesting stuff, I created a "rescue" kite shield for unit access:

I don't expect you guys to include suggested pieces of gear, but it never hurts to post it I suppose.
