Crusader Shield Tank
CrusaderMain tank / physical counterNoong 2026-08 (SEA, na-release ang Crusader noong 2026-08-06; Paladin sa level 70)

Ito ang official Shield build: Smite at Shield Boomerang para sa damage at control, Reflect Shield at Defender para sa melee at ranged mitigation, at Faith saka Sacrifice para protektahan ang party. Sa SEA, nag-live ang Crusader noong Aug 6, isang araw pagkatapos ng level 70 advancement, kaya karamihan sa mga guide ay ipinapakita na itong Paladin na agad; gamitin ito bilang pre-70 skill base.

Tips
- Karamihan sa shield-tank special skills na hinahabol ng mga tao (Fierce Assault) ay kailangan ang Paladin skill na Rapid Smiting, kaya bumabalik lang ito pagkatapos ng level 70.
- Ang Shield build ay ginawa para kontrahin ang melee physical jobs gamit ang Reflect Shield at Auto Guard.
- Mababa ang confidence dahil walang SEA guide na focus lang sa pre-70 Crusader; itong mga pili ay hinango mula sa Crusader section ng mga Paladin build guide.
