Weapon Blocking (Alt: Weapon Blocking) is a 3^rd class active skill available as Guillotine Cross.

Allow to automatically block melee physical attacks temporarily. When blocking a hit, this skill can be followed up with Weapon Crush or Eternal Slash. After blocking a hit, Counter Stance will be activated for 10 seconds, during which Counter Slash can be used. Maintaining this skill active will drain 3 SP every 5 seconds and can be cancelled by using it again.

• The incoming attacks do not have to hit the user to engage a block.
• A blocked hit will cause a movement delay that lasts approximately 1.5 seconds. This will not prevent the usage of skills.
