Ardent Defender Pros and Cons

[jere]

shammy add on fathom lord does multiple attacks for the big spike dmg. So my question would be would it make the third attack less? Or would lag cause it to not come into play?

That said you its not safe to hover below 50% on that fight at all because of the random shadow thingy's that hit you for 50% of your hp.

If I were a betting man, I would say Ardent Defender gets applied on the client side rather than server side, so lag shouldn't affect AD at all.

EDIT: I will rephrase...I think AD is applied in the same place that block, armor, and improved RF are applied.

This along with Avenger's Shield is something I couldn't live without while tanking (one could be taken literally).
