With this build, you can share 50% of your armor with your teammates. I employ this setup during the Dark Hours raid and Countdown to ensure everyone's survival and simplify the raid. It can be utilized in any content where your team requires increased survivability.

To optimize armor, this build was created. I suggest using the exact same gear as I tried different combinations and found this one to be the most effective for this build.

The more armor you have in your build, the more you can distribute. This particular build is where I suggest enhancing Expertise levels on all six gear pieces to max out armor.

Here is table in which order you add Expertise.

With 90% protection against Disrupt status effects, this build is particularly useful when facing Hunter encounters in The Summit and Countdown. Your skills are often disabled in these situations, but with this build's high disrupt protection, you can confidently deploy foam and use your shield.
