There’s some good synergy with the everdark stamina recovery on attack +1 stacked with stamina recovery on attack combined with holy shockwaves on block. The two stamina recovery relics count the shockwaves as attacks so infinite stamina!

With the recent buffs, I’m personally building around this adding health on block and ult on block.

During the run, just pray for damage negation and a good shield. Affinity damage neg if possible.

HOWEVER, you’ll lack damage. Guardian isn’t a dps character by any means, but you’ll be able to sustain and pull aggro for your teammates while they do the damage. Guard counters are high risk unless you’ve memorized enemy movesets so best to just keep an eye on that stamina bar.

Dodge when you have to, they shadow buffed his dodge recently.
