What exactly does Block do?

Just realized I don't know exactly what this stat does. Does it just completely nullify damage from the attack, because then it's exactly like dodge.

The higher % block you have, the more reduced damage it does? Or does it have a % chance to reduce damage. How much is damage reduced by. I thought counter is what was triggering damage reflection.

It makes an attack do less damage and reflects some damage.

Higher % of Block makes it activate more often. Higher Strength will effect damage block will do to the attacker. Counter reduces chance of Critical Hit.

dodge actually does reduce damage (atleast from kido) i tried it out vs barregan and his damage dropped quite a bit
