CarapaceEffect Type: Activated Range: Personal Activation: 40 Cooldown: 60s Requires: 32 strength Improved Combat Training No attack gets past this shield completely.

Blood FuryEffect Type: Activated Activation: 35 The warrior sprays tainted blood in order to knock back nearby enemies, which they may resist by passing a physical resistance check. The gush of blood, however, results in a loss of personal health.
