Stat Goals
Wardens are excellent at self-buffing their BPE stats as well as their mitigations, therefore we pretty much only need vitality essences, but we have to pay close attention to our gear, set bonuses and LIs.
These goals are kept with Essence & Gear planning in mind, as to which Essences are to be prioritized over others. These goals can also be used when picking Virtues.
Resistance > Tactical Mitigation > Physical Mitigation > Vitality
After Resistance is at a good level, and Mits are capped or near capped (with self Gambit buffs also included), then Vitality essences can be used to fill remaining essence slots. Generally, only Tactical Mitigation essences will be needed, as Physical Mitigation gets capped with just cap-level Gear and Virtues
Trait Trees
Virtues
Here are the Virtues which go along with the Stat Goals:
Loyalty (Great for Vitality)
Fidelity (Great for Vitality + Tactical Mit)
Charity (Gives great amount of Resistance, decent Vitality and Physical Mit)
Tolerance (Gives great amount of Tactical Mit, decent Physical Mit and Resistance)
Innocence (Gives great amount of Physical Mit, decent Tactical Mit Mit and Resistance)If you are over Physical Mitigation cap, swap Innocence with Honour
If you don’t have these virtues, here are some alternatives:
Honour (Gives decent Tactical Mit, Morale and Critical Defence)
Fortitude (Gives decent Morale, Resistance and Critical Defence)
Compassion (Gives great Physical Mit, decent Tactical Mit and Armour Value)
