Question WP Buckler

Hi!
I searched the forum but couldn't find a answer.
I just returned to RoR after year and now the WP can have a buckler.
Is there a "tanky spec" for WP now? Or how should you utilize a buckler?
As front line healer, should you use it instead of two-hand or book?
Thanks for your expertise!

Buckler is a for a meme spec that doesn't actually work if you want to be a serious healer.

a bucklerboi can heal good and do other stuff good too, don't let this tryhard tell you otherwise. Works better with plenty of tanks around you though, like anything else.

It's a more interesting but way, way more vulnerable type of WP healing.

Its made for melee healing exept the fact that all the additional tools which would make you tanky or a good front line healer are on heal mastery such as group cleanse and absorb on heal crit, also shield mastery is based on str and are dmg dependant instead being fixed ammount. Since is that way every block/parry screw you and you have to boost your dmg via heal debuff tactic so you are limited to a very risk with no reward gameplay ....
Moreover you have to buff your block to reach 20% which suck as you alredy have lower avoidance than tanks but in this case you can even fail to reach that tiny value...
Traslate = against anything good you are just something ppl laught at , kill and move on. Premade dont use it for a reason...a conqueror caster dok/wp it's thousad times more tanky and heal better than any other dok/wp shield spec...

Go healer dude. If you wanna make difference and keeo your group up, a good bubble wp is the way. Buckler and 2h build are broken and useless most part of the time. 2H hammer is absolutely out of question, it's complete broken since devs put a limitation on Sigmar's Radiance for use with buckler only. But the snare aura of the dok they never gave to wps.
