![]() Lord of Pain provides a very small mitigation buff on single target fights but is very powerful on fights with consistent add waves. Descent of the Fearless is useful on every fight but only buffs your damage and provides no mitigation benefit, and so is difficult to recommend for progression when still learning fights and mechanics. If you only want one set bonus, I would recommend either Lord of Pain or Descent of the Fearless. Your gearing approach as a Defense Guardian mostly comes down to personal preference and your tolerance for having multiple set bonuses to swap between for specific fights. I then target a minimum of mitigation stats and push the balance into Critical.Īlacrity: 1,350 (450 is fine if running the Zeal Guild Perk that provides +5% Alacrity)Ĭritical: Around 2,000 or more (I put the balance of my stat budget into Critical after hitting the other targets)ĭefense Guardian has a LOT of viable set bonus options and does not have a clear-cut best in slot option unlike Kinetic Combat Shadow (Efficient Termination) or Shield Specialist Vanguard (Emergency Power). My preference is to gear Alacrity to reach a 1.4 second cooldown, since it is a more consistent DPS increase and has some secondary benefits for increased uptime of some passive mitigation skills. ![]() Shield: At least 4,000 (I gear for spike damage mitigation so Shield > Absorb)Ībsorb: Up to 3,000 (I gear for spike damage mitigation so Shield > Absorb)įor Defense Guardian, I allocate my tertiary stats as follows for offensive gearing. My primary goal is to divide my tertiary stats such that Shield is 1,000-1,500 points higher than Absorb.Īccuracy: None (tanks have 110% accuracy as a tank discipline) ![]() Relics: Relics of Avoidance & Shield Matrix (I prefer the extra raw tertiary stats)įor Defense Guardian, I allocate my tertiary stats as follows for full mitigation. ![]() Mods: Unlettered Warding Mods (I would swap to Warding B Mods if running Master Mode Dxun) Tactical: Grit Teeth (Leviathan's Hide is usually my backup though I sometimes use Makashi Strike also)Īmplifiers: I usually mix a variety of gold defensive amplifiers Set Bonus: Lord of Pain (Descent of the Fearless or Fulminating Defense are also good choices, some other sets like Undying or Dashing Blademaster can work also) Please see my Gearing Guide and Alacrity Guide for a detailed overview of gearing in 6.x in SWTOR.
