Comments:
Engine Guardian is an excellent sustain set for tanks, easily obtainable and highly effective. It provides Magicka, Stamina, or Health procs, ensuring continuous resource gain as long as you’re casting abilities.

Dragonknights and Sorcerers benefit most, but it works well for any tank, especially when combined with the new Scribing system’s Wield Soul skill and Druid’s Resurgence script. This allows for converting of Magicka to Stamina.

To maximize its benefits:

  • Convert excess Health using the Balance skill for Magicka.
  • Convert Magicka to Stamina with Igneous Shield, Dark Deal, or Wield Soul.
  • Maintain block and taunts with Stamina, ensuring resources for survival actions.

Engine Guardian is invaluable for new tanks struggling with sustain, providing essential resources with only a minor negative impact on the group.
