Justiciar — guide

In short

Justiciar is a Rare Defense champion of the Sacred Order, Void affinity, whose whole kit is about soaking a few hits and provoking. His ratings sit at 1.0–1.5 in every area, so the house verdict is blunt: vault, he is a fusion component for Razen. Don't build him for content.

Strengths

• Tenacity (passive): when he takes a critical hit he counterattacks with his default skill and strips 1 turn of buffs from the attacker — occasionally annoying in Faction Wars.
• +19% Ally DEF aura in Faction Crypts — the only real reason to field him.
• Spirit's Resolve (A1) stacks +3% DEF on himself per hit, up to 10 times per round, so he does get slightly tougher in long fights.
• Reckless Blow (A2) brings a 1-turn Provoke — light crowd control.

Weaknesses

• Weak base stats: 93 SPD and 1,134 DEF, he simply isn't a real tank.
• The Provoke is a 50% coin flip and only lasts 1 turn.
• Damage scales from ATK + DEF while his ATK is 914 — he hits for almost nothing.
• Every content rating is 1.0, so gear, Tomes and scrolls are wasted on him.

Where to use

Faction Crypts first (for the DEF aura), then maybe very early Arena or starter dungeons when you have no better tank. In Clan Boss, Hydra, Chimera, Hard mode and Doom Tower he rates 1.0 — skip those.

Stats and gear

Priority: DEF → HP → SPD. Rough targets: 2,500–3,000 DEF, 40–50k HP, 150–170 SPD; ACC 100–150 only if you actually want the Provoke to land in Faction Wars. Sets: Defense, HP, Speed, Accuracy if the Provoke matters. Skip C.RATE and C.DMG entirely.

Masteries and blessings

The build list flags In For The Kill (Offense tree, tier 6) — an odd pick for a Defense champion, where you'd normally go Defense and Support trees, and not worth the scrolls on a vault Rare. Relic from the list: Molten Deathbell. Skip blessings.

Tombs

Nothing mandatory. If you do keep him in Faction Crypts, the only books worth it are in Reckless Blow: +5%/+10%/+10% debuff chance and −1 cooldown. Otherwise save your Rare Tomes.

Verdict

Vault — keep one copy for the Razen fusion and spend nothing else on him.
