Block tables?

Block tables?

I've searched everywhere for block tables, but I can't find anything. Am I dreaming or did there used to be a set of tables that listed each unique shield and the dex each class needed to obtain max block with them?

you could learn the formula by heart, that way its always easy to use it.

Dex=(150*level + 15*block)/block

where block is the amount of block on the shield, level is the level of your char, and dex is the amount of dex you need.

I think you are, because such a table would have to have an entry for each class for each shield for every level from 1 to 99.

Actually, there was a file on DII.net's main page that allowed you to input what level you were at, and the base blocking on the shield that would tell you how much dex was needed, with a window open to the unique shields page, it's not difficult in the slightest.

In this guide from the sorc-forum you can find a list with blocking on various shields and dex req needed for different char-lvls.

That's a calculator, not a "set of tables".

Even such a calculator is unnecessary. The block formula is easy enough to find, as is the base blocking of the shield in question.
