Monk level 38.
UsagepalmguardDescription
The Monk raises an open hand and waits for one committed physical line to turn
into violence.
Combat Buff
For 10 seconds Palm Guard begins around:
+125 dodge, +100 DR, +3 one-hit, +80 damroll, -10 speed,
+80 Melee Power, +100 Major Wound, +6 Critical,
with several values scaling from remorts. Counter Current adds another
+75 dodge, +50 DR and +40 Melee Power.
Guarded Hit
The next eligible non-spell, non-gun attack is reduced by 45 percent and
consumes Palm Guard. Counter Current adds 10 points and Turning Hand adds
another 10, allowing 65 percent reduction. The guard then enters a 14-second
reuse marker.
Once Flowing Hands is known, a successful Palm Guard also leaves a 10-second
Flowing Hands opening on the attacker for your next Iron Palm.
