Any time your
Avatar would take
damage,
you reduce that damage by 2, to a minimum of 0. Note that an
enemy striking one of your sites causes
life loss to your Avatar, not damage; life loss is not affected by this
ability. Each source of damage is reduced by 2. For example, if you
attack and three
Foot Soldiers defend together, you take 0 damage since each Foot Soldier would do 1 damage, which you reduce. As another example, if you are hit by an
Arcane Barrage for 5, you take 0 damage, since each
projectile would do 1 damage, which you reduce.
