Scroll of Sentinel's Scherzo

BRD Lv.82

Teaches the Sentinel's Scherzo.
Mitigates the impact of severely
damaging attacks for party members
within area of effect.

Scherzo acts as a barrier that activates against single physical or magical attacks that would take 75% or more of a target's HP, after accounting for Damage Taken- effects on gear. It reduces that damage by an amount influenced by the combined Singing and Instrument Skill of the Bard.

• Damage Reduction % = floor(((Singing Skill + Instrument Skill) - 350) / 10)
• Damage Reduction % from Scherzo caps at 45% before equipment bonuses.
• Equipment that gives "Scherzo +" or "All Songs +" increases the damage reduction by 1% per +1 level.
• When combined with other sources of "mitigates severe damage" effects (such as Earthen Armor), Scherzo's effect is counted against a total combined damage mitigation cap of 95%.
• Soul Voice and Marcato only increase the duration of this song, and not its effects on reducing severe damage taken.
