Guardian's Belt


The image above is a screen shot of my belt. This is a real compromise belt. I could have three different belts. One for tanking, one for overpower and one for the ettenmoors but hey, I just haven’t got the stamina to level and equip three different belts.
Currently it has the Steadfast Protector title which gives +360 Melee Defence Rating. However I must do the Midnight Raid quest at Echad Dunann in Eregion. This quest rewards are various legendary item titles that can be applied to a legendary weapon. One of them is Stalwart Guardian that gives +600 Melee Defence Rating. The quest was once a difficult level 60 quest but now the maximum level is 65 it is straightforward and with a burglar in the group, easy.
+6% Perceived Threat is quite good for a Second Age belt. I’ve seen some Second Age belts with +1 and 2% threat. +12 Shield Wall Range is essential for Shield Wall in the ettenmoors. The base range of 5m is just not enough to be effective. The Shield Wall will toggle off each time the minstrel moves away from you. The Guardian’s Threat stance is becoming increasingly important for tanking and especially for co-tanking with a Warden. Toggling Guardian’s Threat on and off at the appropriate times can help with aggro switching. The Setting, Gem and Rune on the belt have been primarily chosen to boost morale.
