It's pretty much worthless though, in my opinion at least.

The way it's set up now, it reduces damage by an unknown percentage but, unless you're running up to the enemy there's no real reason to use it. It doesn't block melee attacks so you can still be stunlocked by the infected. I think you'd also take less damage if you just kill the enemy rather than block. Now if the block actually deflected some attacks or made melee enemies go off-balance then that might be a reason to use it. But until then, I don't really see a point, or reason to block when you can just hide behind cover or just as easily shoot the enemy and take less damage? Well I guess if you're trying to run a mission without guns.
