Maybe this is a dumb question, but the game is so frikkin' complicated with descriptions and/or lack there of, I thought I'd ask anyway.
For anyone who knows offhand (so I don't have to test it myself):
Do these masteries affect damage taken through blocks or does it only affect direct hits?
Do these masteries also affect DOT (bleed, coldsnap, poison, degen, etc.)?
Thanks.

If the DoT effects deal physical or energy damage, it will also interact with them
If you dont run willpower forget all the 3 I talked about
The reason while they have so little impact:
First you need to know that these are flat numbers that become % numbers.
Lets take a 5* R5 Aegon for example:
(for this test you have 3/3 in parry and 4/4 in block proficiency and you fight vs 5* R5)
Parry: 3.734 base-PB + 800 from mastery = 4.534 = 68,3% + 25% (from parry) = 93,3% damage reduction.
The 6,7% will be reduced by armor + physical resist (if its a normal attack)
Aegon has 525 armor = 20%
So 6,7% - 20% = 5,36% damage that you take.
With 4/4 pysical resist its 525 armor + 160 physical resist = 685 = 24,6%
So 6,7% - 24,6 = 5,05% damage that you take.
As you can see physical resist makes 0,31% damage in this example.
Now you can tell me if you think its worth it.
