Block Chance Reduction is a support gem. It reduces the target's chance to block or dodge the supported skills. If the enemy blocks the supported skill, it inflicts overpowered which further reduces the enemies' chance to block. It is a recipe-only support gem intended to have a player-versus-player focus.
