Shield Mastery

__NOTOC__
==Job Trait Overview==
*Game Description: Grants bonus TP when blocking an attack with a shield.
*TP bonus is granted when shield blocking physical attacks; no TP bonus if not shield blocked.
*TP bonus is not granted if the wielder receives no damage from the attack.
*Prevents spell interruption from attacks that are blocked with the shield during spell casting. Any attacks that are not blocked by the shield still have a chance to interrupt.
*This Job Trait is always active. 
*Further Notes:
**There are three levels of Shield Mastery, obtained at: Level 25, Level 50, and Level 75.
**It's speculated that on shield block, one would gain 1 extra TP with Shield Mastery I, 2 TP with Shield Mastery II, and 3 TP with Shield Mastery III.
***Another theory holds that Store TP enhances the TP bonus.
**See FFXIOnline for more discussion on the effects of this Job Trait.
