Description

Kaupe is a 2nd class supportive skill available as Soul Linker and Soul Ascetic. It reduces incoming damage from an enemy and lasts until the 10-minute duration or until all blocks are consumed. The number of blocks and damage reduction is based on skill level. It now has a 3 second per-player cooldown, which starts whenever the status ends. Casting Kaupe on a player on cooldown will display a fail message that the targeted player is on cooldown. This per-player cooldown does not apply in WoE/PvP.

Skill Level	Damage reduction	# of Blocks	SP cost
1	20%	3	20
2	40%	2	30
3	100% (works like a dodge)	1	40

Notes

• This skill, like other Ka-skills, can only be used on yourself, your spose or your child, or other Soul Linkers, unless you are tethered to a player using Spirit Link. Using the skill on anyone else causes the skill to fail and the caster to be stunned.
  • With the exception of WoE where it can be used on any player (as if you had the old Soul Linker Spirit).
• Only the first hit from multiple-hit skills (e.g. Bowling Bash, Storm Gust) will be reduced (unless you have multiple blocks available). Kaupe must be reapplied in order to reduce successive hits.
• Kaupe is consumed before Tumbling gets its chance to activate.
• Kaupe is consumed after Kaite.
• Kaupe can be applied to all party members when used with Soul Unity.
• The following skills ignore Kaupe:
  • Pressure
  • Gravitation Field
  • Tarot Card of Fate's Chariot, Devil, and Tower cards
