How to improve Block quick

[superlloyd]

I am trying to just stand in front of an enemy, shield up, and wait for them to hit me....
But it takes forever to get a +1 to skill.... (got 61% right now)

Does it raise faster with higher level enemy (although everyone level with me, I think?)

do the arena. fight til you get to the first 3 vs 1 fight. the unarmed Argonians. excelent for leveling both armor and block.

Stand in front of many enemies.

Get multiple enemys hitting you while blocking at least 3 just keep healing.

There's a block skill? Hahaha. It never even occurred to me. I do use a shield to block occasionally, but I have never noticed that skill increase.

Lol, yes, there is a block skill!
When you are good enough, there is even a dodge perk :)

Pretty sure the dodge perk comes from athletics? Although maybe you didn't mean "good enough" as in good enough in block skill haha.

Ha yes, just checked, my bad. 25 in Acrobatic is what gives you the dodge.
Blocks perks are about losing less fating and equipment durability when blocking

The bonuses to high block skill are reduced damage taken, reduced wear on your shield, reduced fatigue use, and even a shield bash. Totally worth it if you want that kind of build.
