I like the basic idea of ​​this set. Hard counter against ganger.

The problem I see is that there is another 5% unnamed damage reduction buff. There are enough damage reduction options in the game now. There is no need for another one that keeps up with all of them.

The next problem is that the set also triggers on knockback. So it's also triggered by the Dragonknight Ferocious Leap and Take Flight Ultimate. Same with the Mage Guild Ultimate Meteor.

Suggestion: change the 5% damage reduction to "minor protection"
Also removes knockback as a set trigger, or removes knockback from Ultimates Dragon Leap and Meteor and his Morphs.

    Should be fine and in line with Bloodspawn (3731 armor) and Lord Warden (3180 armor) unnamed buffs.

    Confirmed the set works with Ice Comet.

    Here's Rush of Agony for comparison.

    Off the top of my head, this set is a hard counter for
    • Dark Convergence
    • Rush of Agony
    • Meteor
    • Javelin
    • Magnum Shot
    • Flame Clench
    • Dragon Leap
    S+ tier monster set

    Don't forget Volcanic Rune, everyone's favorite knockback that loads of people definitely use.

    It also procs with Chains, warden pull, Void Bash, Beckoning Armor, and Silver Leash. Not sure if there's any other forced movement outside of those and the ones you already mentioned.

    That 2pc does look excellent but so does the healing reduction 2pc. Both will change gameplay a lot and hopefully for the better as right now it’s so hard to kill anyone through heals.

    Going to be a must run imo.

    Can anyone check to see if the Shield is buffed by CP?

    I assume it does, but does the Arcanist charm proc this? Can you break free via slippery before it charms/moves you to not proc the set? Curious if/how slippery interacts with it. Thank you to all the testers as well.

    They should make the set work so if you teleport or streak/ we get a DMG shield it would make the monster set really worth it for sorcs and arcanist tanks. i couldn't see why they wouldn't have thought of this themselves.

    being pushed or pulled willingly or against your will gain a dmg shield.

    also, is this considered a proc set?

    The set specifically calls out Pulls, Knockbacks, and Teleports, so Charm should not proc it. I can't confirm that it doesn't but if it does I would argue that it is (at least with the current language on the set) a bug.

    While I think the shield on this set is probably too large (by like, 1/3 - it's significantly larger than a typical hardened ward, and in the range of a Barrier ult which is a pretty silly). In concept, this set is a really good addition that should help give PUGs some counterplay to coordinated bombs. And I say that as someone who runs the pull for a coordinated group.
