Shield Warrior Priest underperformance even with BiS gear

[Mvl130]

For scenarios, the build suggested by Demonito works better if you slot Divine Fury instead of United in Prayer

Full defensive seems better for warband, whre most of your utility comes from Sigmar's Will ; assist damage is rather irrelevant in these circumstances, and you will be healing a whole lot with this ability since a bunch of players are blobbed in one place

For scenarios where people are more scattered, Sigmars Will does not perform as much, as such full defensive does not work well ; the protection is average, healing is below average, damage is inferior to SnB tanks

Removing one heal bonus tactic and replacing it with one more offense balances this out, you can deal decent assist damage thanks to constant 25% bonus damage, also you have Opportunist IV that provides crit, instead of fanaticism that would perma-nerf your heal for only rng crit bonus ; your heal output is still very fine thanks to Exalted Defenses, and your lifetaps heal for more thanks to bonus damage ; enemies around die faster with your damage, as such you die less, your protection score can go higher because absorb aura keeps running in the background

You end up with something rather balanced, you're not top heal but you make up with good protection and assist damage. The main problem of this build however is the absence of dodge/disrupt chances, you are completely worthless against teams of rdps that simply destroy you
