- This skill is great as a caster defense with no investment and I can even help my teammates out with this one! It might be a bit too powerful for only 5 energy, but I love it! Nicky Silverstar 07:31, 2 October 2007 (UTC)
It greatly replaces Conviction and Vital Boon on my dervish and is much better most of the time for I do not use the Boon's healing effect and benefit from its conditional extra armor and long duration. Really, nice but not overpowered skill. Noctarch 02:49, 19 May 2008 (UTC)
working great on my zealous vow build —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Masmar (talk • contribs) at 19:08, 14 July 2008 (UTC).

- Restoration rits don't use enchantments on other players so this can stack with things like spirit light weapon or weapon of warding. Druid 19:14, 5 August 2008 (UTC)
Very strong skill, and with a low cost, fast recharge time as well. Also a very good duration, even at r5 Valion Sentis 02:50, 13 October 2008 (UTC)
Very nice not only for armor but as a cover enchant w/ 5e/10recharge; I often use it both to buff armor and to protect things like Spirit's Strength or especially Strength of Honor on a build where I'd otherwise be at a bit of a loss for a useful cover in my attributes. 75.158.134.214 07:04, 27 August 2011 (UTC)
24+24=25?[edit]
Like the Ebon Battle Standard of Courage, does this actually only give +25 armor vs destroyers due to effect stacking? --Combatter 18:42, 14 October 2009 (UTC)
- You would have +25 armor vs. all damage and an additional +24 armor vs. Destroyers. That would be it. Karate Jesus 18:44, 14 October 2009 (UTC)
- Hmmm are u sure? If you read the Note for Ebon Battle Standard of Courage, it says that you only end up with +25 armor vs charr because of effect stacking. I know it sounds pretty stupid if that's the case tho. --Combatter 14:19, 15 October 2009 (UTC)
Tested with 60AL monk with IAU for +24AL reference and GDA.
- Looks like it's capped at +25AL against Destroyers, just like EBSoC.--Dash 21:27, 24 July 2010 (UTC)
- Is there a reason this hasn't been fixed? It seems sort of foolish to have +24 armor bonus if it doesn't actually grant that. I can understand if it's meant to counter Cracked Armor or most Air Magic spells when fighting Destroyers, but I don't think any Destroyers actually have skills that reduce player armor.

- The reason it hasn't been fixed is because it's not a bug specific to this skill. All skills that give +armor stack only up to +25 or so. The only way to have more +armor is to use a single skill that boosts it higher, like Kinetic Armor. 76.78.119.108 02:29, 21 August 2011 (UTC)
- thats odd, iau is supposed to be bugged and ignore the armor cap 24.130.140.36 02:56, 21 August 2011 (UTC)
- Only if IAU went OVER the +armor cap. Without any other boosters it's still only +24. Leave the Weak 02:02, 20 December 2011 (UTC)
