New World Builds: Tank Sword and Shield Build | Defiant Shockwave Guide
New World Tank Build Guide for the Sword and Shield. This Sword and Shield Tank Build Guide focuses on Tanking in both Dungeons, as well as in groups out on the landscape in Elite questing areas. It has excellent surviveability due to the Shield passives, and ability to Block a large amount of attacks. But more importantly, it has threat generation, forcing enemies to attack you, protecting your party members. If you’ve been looking for a good Tank Build, then this Guide is for you.

The way this Build works is that you’ll lead with Path of Destiny to get the attention of enemies as you approach and then you’ll immediately follow up with Shockwave. This Skill will taunt enemies if you have a Carnelian Gem slotted into your Hammer, which you should have.
You can then switch to Sword & Shield and attack, then use Defiant Stance to taunt enemies further if you need to, as long as you have a Carnelian Gem in your Sword. Any remaining enemies can be taunted or interrupted with Shield Bash, and then you can use Reverse Stab to reduce the cooldown of your Sword and Shield abilities by a whopping 25%, allowing you to use them again more quickly.
Each trash pull should follow a similar pattern, and Bosses will be slightly different depending on what they do. For instance, if there is a singular boss you’ll likely lead with Path of Destiny and then hit with Shield Bash to Taunt, and follow with Defiant Stance, and Reverse Stab. You can then use Armor Breaker to debuff the boss, increasing all damage your group will do to it, and hit with Shockwave to taunt it again, before swapping back to Sword and Shield.
