-----BALANCE CHANGES-----
Stats and Traits:
* Major change to how block works. It now has a % chance to block damage fully, rather than blocking a flat amount of damage. Additionally, if you have your shield up but your block fails, you will still reduce damage by 25%. This is (imo) a major improvement to how shields worked before, and falls in line with how blocking works in other ARPGs.
* Critical hit and critical damage should now be slightly easier to stack.
* Dodge rating and armor now max out at 95%, up from 90% and 80%, respectively. Because of how these stats are calculated, this also means it is 5.55% and 18.75% easier to stack the respective stats (huge buff for armor).
* Dodge rating and armor stats are now slightly more effective, except max dodge rating percent has been reduced by 4%.
* Health regen, magic shield, and magic shield regen stat values have been increased slightly.
* Health flat stat values have been decreased slightly.
* Block Reflect stat has been improved greatly.
* Block Chance nodes on the talent tree have been changed from percent to flat increases (buff).
* Magic shield minimum flat value has been adjusted to make it easier to stack magic shield early on.
* BUFF: Reckless Blows now has a -50% multi on armor from -75%.
* BUFF: Stout Defender now has a -25% multi on stats from -30%.
