I don’t know, TBL was nice today, using 1h spear didn’t feel con or defense affecting me more than usual, but the shield saved me more than a few times, not to mention, my HP being 32k+ while the mount’s stamina was up. Also, rush prevents most of the CC outright and archers are so scared of it…
Seriously, shield defense and extra block saved me from archers way too many times. I guess testing full mdef shield/gems/etc wouldn’t be out of the question, since full con wiz base matk isn’t too high you could mitigate a lot of the damage.
The defensive cards seem a bit underwhelming tbh, might as well bet on the offensive side of things and keep the defense to the gears.
