DEF%- Every point of DEF cuts the damage taken.
SPD- Protection, taunts and buffs only help if they come in time.
RES- Shrugs off enemy debuffs.
ACC- Optional - only the A1 places , so other stats come first.

Blessings
Ward of the Fallen- Damage reduction that grows as the fight turns bad - good on a champion that must survive to keep the team's buffs and heals flowing.
Intimidating Presence- A good fit on a leader whose aura is worth boosting; wasted on a champion that is not leading.
Iron Will- Helps durable champions that often carry debuffs - against boss debuffs and in the Arena.
Volcardiac Heart- Puts a protective buff on the whole team as the fight opens, which helps most when the first rounds are the dangerous ones.
Hand of Uncreation- Makes enemy debuffs, buff removal, turn-meter steals and cooldown increases land less often on the wearer - protects the champion that holds the team together.
Diadem of Undeath- Raises the wearer's DEF for each ally it has under its own [Ally Protection], which rewards a champion that shields others.
