Tanking requirements for bastion stairs?

What armor and auras are necessary for this on KotBS? Have tried twice once in half vanq/ half invader and in full invader with subjugator sword/shield and it was a struggle.

Having 0.0% chance to be critted for pve is pretty crutial, both for you and the person you are guarding so when bosses do their abilities you dont get critted for a few thousand AND take guarddamge for someone else getting critted. Saving defensive cooldowns like Vigilence, Shieldwall or whatever to help your healers out.

some of the encounters in Bastionstairs does have aggroreset mechanics and stacking armordebuffs, pay attention to the boss mechanics.
As for the gear, pretty much most defensve set mixes should do already in a 2-2-2 party where everyone is average skillleveling, have pve tactics equipped and you do the mechanics.

Ahh yeah think my armor was only around 4100. Whenever i ask in game pretty much no one responds and 1 person told me don't worry about armor. Yeah, i always have 0 crit with extra initiative but never thought about guard's crit chance. Thanks for responses

I’ve done my runs of BS with full invader, subj weapons, genesis everlasting just fine. The only time I had to worry about my armor was against the mini boss that hurts you if you heal. Full invader has a mending proc that **** you up during the fight. Other than that, my invader set has done me well.
