Shield block chance is always 0% no matter how many talent points Shield Mastery has. Chance can only be improved by a talent called Shield Mastery in the School of Survival. If you carry a shield with you in a battle, a shield block may trigger automatically when your opponent attack you. Opponents using guitars or ranged weapons cannot parry or shield block. You can improve the chance by adding more points to Agility, or talents called Dodge Mastery' and Parry Mastery in the School of Survival.

The combat system appears to work like this. Passive skills means skills which will trigger automatically in a battle. your positions remain the same afterwards.
