Hello everyone! I've recently geared up with full AC set and I'm curious—what's the best shield to go for when it comes to defense in certain instances? I know using a GS is the way to go when I'm focusing on DPS. But, I'm a bit confused about which mana stones to slot into my gear. I'm considering +105HP for the main slot and 19+ crit elsewhere. Please share your thoughts if I'm going off track. I'm also aiming to tackle challenges like IS and eventually IO, especially once I switch my stigmas for full DPS. I'm kind of lost on what build could be the Ultimate choice. Btw, I've been testing on the Aion Riftshade server, and it's phenomenal! With their DPS Meter and balanced PvE, it feels more promising than anything else. Any advice would be appreciated!

We have a guardian tank with stones where hp meets only the second stat, and then not often.

I suggest you get the Battle Shield for ancient coins [item:115001604] since it's one of the best PvE-shields in the game. Easy to get and very easy to enchant to +5 to get the full 70% damage reduction on blocks.
If you go full crit+19, you'll probably have around 5 slots left for non-crit manastones. You can use HP+105 to fill these slots, if you want, but I personally would use attack+7, because, well, ~500 HP aren't going to save you, but damage is damage.
