Resolute Defense [P]
Decreases the damage received by this Champion by 15% while under a [Shield] buff.
Skill texts, cooldowns and book upgrades are the game's own. "Damage" is the skill's multiplier (for example 4×ATK = four times this champion's ATK, before the target's DEF) - see how damage works.
Suggested build

- DEF% - The skills' damage scales from DEF.
Gear set combinations
- Ignores DEF on every hit, plus DEF - the all-round damage build.Gives: DEF +15%, Savage effect
- C.RATE and DEF ignore in one set, with SPD to act more often.Gives: C.RATE +10%, SPD +12%, Lethal effect
- Heals from its own damage - survives long boss fights.Gives: DEF +15%, Lifesteal effect
- Three 2-piece sets when your 4-piece pieces are weak.Gives: DEF +15%, C.RATE +12%, SPD +12%

- T6Eagle-Eye+50 ACC.
Blessings

- Lightning Cage - Rewards teams that fight buffed enemies and gives any attacker a steady source of extra damage.
Relics
- Irethi Coronet - Damage climbs with each debuff the wearer places, up to a cap - made for champions that apply several debuffs per turn.
- Preserved Aberration - Ignores DEF for each [Poison] the wearer has on the target - a natural fit for poisoners.
- Arachnelixir - Adds ATK-based bonus damage to the wearer's [Poison] debuffs, so poison kits get a lot more out of each tick.
