Since I'm mostly using 2h still, Divine Shield is very useful for damage reduction, probably cuts more than half my tiny pot use.
less effective with a shield? am i missing something or was this a typo? I was planning on going guardian after maxed blast because i figured it offered the best middle ground between bossing and training, where i would take far less damage (and status effects) from bosses while also getting a mini-stance effect while training.
as for divine shield, i seriously dont see how anyone can argue it not being neccessary. If you're clever about it then you can use divine shield as a 10point power stance when training - you just have to be clever about actually avoiding damage once it activates. i was able to keep it up well over 80% of the time and did wonders for my training (since it also made me strong enough to 1hit red dragon turtles with ACB after they got rushed).
@kojo - in KMS i recall them getting an SP reset for chaos patch,so assuming nexon doesnt try to slink by without giving them out again then you'll be able to do it. i dumped 3 points into holy charge and i think that'll suit me just fine for a loooong while.
