The defence ability of this buff is redundant with Iron Flesh, they both give the same reflection bonus. As it stands, Iron Flesh is more effective (on top of deflection it also blocks physical damage) but completely prevents you from rolling. Great Magic Shield will prevent all damage while blocking, and with any shield with more than 66 Stability will provide 100% stability.

After you have reasonable defenses, focus purely on offense.
