Safety Wall raises a protective barrier on a single cell that absorbs a set number of melee attacks before shattering.

Overview

Safety Wall is a cornerstone defensive skill. Anyone standing on the warded cell is shielded from melee (short-range) attacks until the wall absorbs its limit of hits or its duration runs out. It is the classic answer to melee-heavy enemies and is widely used to protect both the caster and allies.

Mechanics

The wall is placed on a single cell and blocks incoming melee attacks. It breaks after absorbing a fixed number of attacks, or when its duration expires, whichever comes first. Each successful cast consumes 1 Blue Gemstone.

Effect formula: Attacks blocked = 1 + SkillLv.

Duration: 5 × SkillLv seconds. Cast time decreases from 4 seconds at Lv 1 down to 1 second at Lv 7 and above.

Notes

• Blocks short-range (melee) attacks only; ranged and magic attacks pass through.
• Missed melee attacks still count against the wall's hit limit.
• Monster skills used within 4 cells are treated as melee and are also blocked.
• Cannot overlap with another Safety Wall.
