Shadow Barrier I: Casting a Shadow ability grants you Major Resolve for 6 seconds, increasing your Physical and Spell Resistance by 5948. This duration is increased by 2 seconds for each piece of Heavy Armor equipped. Current duration: (2 × Heavy Armor #) seconds.
Shadow Barrier II: Casting a Shadow ability grants you Major Resolve for 12 seconds, increasing your Physical and Spell Resistance by 5948. This duration is increased by 2 seconds for each piece of Heavy Armor equipped. Current duration: (2 × Heavy Armor #) seconds

Shadow Barrier increases your physical and spell resistance for a short time whenever you use a Shadow active ability. Wearing Heavy Armor increases this duration by 2 seconds per armor piece, for a up to a maximum of 20 seconds duration, or 26 seconds duration with 2 points invested in the passive.

Patch NotesEdit

  • This passive now provides the buffs Major Resolve and Major Spell Resist for 4 seconds after using a Shadow ability, with the duration increased when wearing heavy armor.
  • Increased this passive ability's base duration of Major Ward and Major Resolve to 3/6 seconds from 2/4 seconds.
    • Developer Comments: Increasing the duration of this passive's bonuses will improve the overall survivability of Nightblades. Tank-focused Nightblades in Heavy Armor, in particular, should have a much easier time maintaining more consistent uptime on these buffs when using strategic combinations of abilities such as Refreshing Path or Summon Shades.
