Lacking physical armour, a Wizard needs magical protection in dangerous places. This temporal shield will dislocate all damage from a single attack, but can only do so with timed intervals.

Skill Design

An interesting variation on spell shields. Rather than absorbing X amount of damage, or some % of damage, this one takes out 100% of the damage, but only works every 6 seconds.
