What's the highest amount of deflection you can have in-game?

[giftmefood]

I wanna build a deflection tank. All help are welcome!

[Marigoldran]

Pal/Wiz, obviously.  Right? Cadhu, Skrim, Llengrath's Safeguard, and Arcane Veil.  Human, max Res.

Yep Pal/Wiz will have the highest deflection when protection spell is ON.

There is a build in the builds sticky. Something like 210. Literally cannot get hit, IIRC.

I tried that to Dorudugan. I have 205 deflection and I still get hit... His cleave attack always rolls at high 90's so it will always hit you. 

 

The most success I've had to facetanking Dorudugan is bloodmage/nalpazca monk (sage). 205 deflection + blade turning (redirects Dordugan's attacks back to him) + enduring dance (even blood sacrifice and dordugan's attacks are not enough to refill the wounds to reliably keep using blade turning)

 

The problem with this is you will last LOOOONG and deal 1 bar of dordugan's HP  (just off of the redirected attacks) but you will still die in the end. His cleave attack goes through 205 deflection like butter as well as his cleave attack for some stupid reason does not get redirected to him. His cleave attack does ALOT too even with 20 armor. 

 

However, if you have a herald as a 2nd character it is able to heal all the damage sustained by my blood mage deflection monk build. So you can 2v1 Dorudugan but not solo.

> Dorudugan

 

Yeah, I don't know who that is =p

[Marigoldran]

Right.  Heralds and Monks.  The ultimate combo.

200 defence are not enough

This made me laugh more than it should have. Perfect timing. Well played.

His unwarranted suggestions about monks and heralds as being the best finally came true for him. Haha
