Flank

Flank is a two fold ability.

Flank allows the ranger to strategically anticipate any maneuver which attempts to maneuver past his defenses (such as circle or defense), and see opportunities which would allow him to pass the frontal defenses of an opponent.

First, its latent ability allows a ranger to defeat/block 1 in 10 of circle/backstab attacks. There is no damage dealt to the attacker from this flank protection, however, a 'jarring' affect could be added to possibly cause a disarm to the aggressor.

When used actively, the ranger can 'flank' an enemy attack and sideslash them past their defense, making it an attack.

In the alternative, flank could be selectively toggled... FLANK DEFENSIVE for the flanking protection or FLANK OFFENSIVE for the flanking attack maneuver.
