Question on Sacred Defender stance

[Vathailos]

Do you get the augmented bonuses to STR/CON, etc. in the defensive stance if you use an orb OR shield, or just a shield (as the tool tip says)?

Thanks in advance!

The Greater defensive stance bonuses require either a shield or medium / heavy armor equipped. As long as you meet one of those conditions, you're fine. Orbs do NOT qualify as shields.

Stellar news, and I appreciate the prompt update!

Trying do decide on APs for my FVS/PAL SWF hybrid, and regardless of whether I go Warsoul or KotC T-5, I'll have the Med/Heavy armor aspect covered
