That math does not add up. The skill should improve much... almost 5 times... faster with a more difficult mob and damage. Yet, it took 22 less.

I remember that heavy hits from tougher mobs usually offer more exp, but I have maxed blocking into my 2 mains so long ago now.. I have forgotten :P
However, I typically (during your age) would go into the black forest at night, close to a nest as well and have like 10 greydwarves hit my shield, faster exp farming that way.

Yes, I'm not new to the game. Did 750+ hrs on my first file and killed all the bosses twice. Yes, I took my sweet time learning the game :P Had my starter base, a second base which was fully progressed and a third which was a stone castle on an island. All solo, fully progressed... It's just that recently I considered counting the number of hits... out of boredom. This is a new file/world since the latest update came out and I returned to the game. Again, it's mostly just an observation I wanted to point out. Not knocking the game or looking for pointers on how to level up.... If I could delete the thread, I would.
