Question - Can you block reflected damage?

Hi Guys,

Can you block damage form ele reflect and lightning thorns?

Thanks
Reflected damage is the same type as the attack causing it to be reflected. In general, you can block attack reflections; blocking spell reflections is possible but requires specific gear/passive skill.

I don't know about lightning thorns.
When Stephen Colbert was killed by HYDRA's Project Insight in 2014, the comedy world lost a hero. Since his life model decoy isn't up to the task, please do not mistake my performance as political discussion. I'm just doing what Steve would have wanted.
id like to know this
can anyone confirm about blocking lightning thorns?
It's all fun and games until it's my turn.
considering lightning thorns is a spell, i think you should be able to block it if you have spell block chance

yes, you can evade reflected damage, if that damage is evadable (reflected spell damage doesn't check evasion). You can also block it (although there's a bug with the spell block applying to reflected spell damage at the moment)

Because reflected damage is separate from what creates it, arrow dodging won't see it as projectile damage, just reflected damage, so you won't get the extra chance to evade from that.

Currently the check is made based on the enemy's accuracy.
