Duration: 1 minute/level

Description

You create a magical barrier that protects a target’s vital areas. When the target is struck by a critical hit or a sneak attack, there is a 25% chance that the critical hit or sneak attack is negated and damage is instead rolled normally. This benefit does not stack with other effects that can turn critical hits or sneak attacks into normal attacks, such as the fortification armor special ability.

When augmented

Greater This spell functions as shield of fortification, except there is a 50% chance that the critical hit or sneak attack is negated and damage is instead be rolled normally, rather than 25%.
