Unyielding Sentinel[edit]

Unyielding Sentinel tree

Loyal to the last, the Unyielding Sentinel gives everything to keep safe his companions, including his life if necessary.

This Divine Epic Destiny provides the strongest defensive options for the armor-clad combatant and grants supreme mastery in the use of shields. Sentinels may also specialize in dealing extra Lawful, Chaotic, or Holy damage; or extra damage to undead. When prepared, the Unyielding Sentinel is like a fortress for his allies and is virtually unkillable.

Note: All Sentinel Stances are not counted as defensive stances.

Requirements[edit]

At level 20, your Destiny may be to become an Unyielding Sentinel if you have at least one of:
