Hm ...
I think that everyone here is thinking that by getting more block for the archer/mage, they'll block like half of the hits that are directed at them. It doesn't work that way. Shields, obviously, are going to be much better for block than your bare hands, some kind of bow, or a long stick that can use magic. But I mean it doesn't hurt to be able to block at least some of the time though, right? A pure end fighter with a shield is going to block much more than a pure end fighter without a shield, cause the shield - yes, the big flat circular thing - is going to block some of the hits. It's that simple. If mages/archers put points into end and not get blocks, they're missing out on a lot, right? It's not like archers are going to block half of the hits and then evade the rest. A shield can make a lot of difference. If you were fighting a street gang, in which situation do you think you'll most likely win: one where you're fighting in limpy lingerie or one where you're still fighting in lingerie but you've got a big piece of wood with you for which you can block and hit to some extent?
