Fortification
This article needs to be updated.
Reason: Changes to fortify mechanic in version 3.16.0
Please update this article to reflect newly available information. Relevant discussion may be found on the talk page.
Fortification is a stackable buff that grants the player 1% less damage taken from hits. By default, it has a maximum of 20 stacks and lasts 5 seconds. The amount of stacks gained depends on a combination of the strength of the hit and the enemy's ailment threshold. This does not apply to damage over time, since it does not hit.
Sources of Fortification
Fortification can be gained by multiples sources which split into two categories, those that go through regular rules of fortification (Hit) and those that works as buff with a limited amount of Fortification. The sources are the following:
