Changes

|replaces=Armored Mage (Light, Medium, Heavy Shield), Armor proficiency (Medium, Heavy, Shields)

|benefit=The Duskblade gains some of the abilities shared by Barbarians, Monks, and Rogues, shown below.

'''Evasion (Ex):''' A Duskblade can avoid even magical and unusual attacks with great agility. If he makes a successful Reflex saving throw against an attack that normally deals half damage on a successful save (such as a red dragon’s fiery breath or a fireball), he instead takes no damage. Evasion can be used only if a Duskblade is wearing light armor or no armor. A helpless Duskblade (such as one who is unconscious or paralyzed) does not gain the benefit of evasion. This replaces Armored Mage (Light).
