Guard

Guarding cuts incoming foe damage with armor and talent mitigation. Unguarded swings deal the full attack.

While you are Guarding, incoming foe damage is:

damage = max(1, bossAttack − floor(armor × 0.5) − floor(bossAttack × guardMitigationPct / 100))

guardMitigationPct comes from talents. Unguarded swings deal max(1, bossAttack).

Guard is the fight-bar brace, not the overnight stance. Overnight Guard is the safe no-income stance. In a fight, Guard is the button that spends a GCD to mitigate the next foe swing.

Rated PvP also gives a Guard opener shield of 5 absorb per level. See PvP stance.

Haste

Your action lockout starts at 1000 ms and will not drop below 700 ms. Foes stay on 3000 ms.

Health

Max HP from level and stamina. Rest heals on wall-clock. Gather and Guard do not heal.
