Added Reforged Artifact +2, +3

When a physical attack is successfully '''guarded''' by a hand-to-hand weapon, the damage taken from the attack is significantly reduced.

==Overview==
Guard skill is a [[:Category:Combat Skills|combat skill]] that determines a player's ability to block a significant portion of the damage from an incoming physical attack while using a [[Hand-to-Hand]] weapon. The activation of guard is determined by the enemy's level and the player's guard skill. Unlike a shield block, guard can only activate while engaged to an enemy, but guard can activate on any attacking enemy in front of the player, not just the one currently targeted. When an attack is successfully guarded, the attacker's [[pDIF]] is lowered by 1.0, usually greatly reducing damage.

The job trait [[Tactical Guard]] allows a successful guard to generate additional TP return for the player.
