Just wanted to explain the 3 skill level abilities for sheild carrying characters.
Guard is used when you click on a char in your grp while hunting mobs. During mele of mobs and rvr. It uses your shield to block a hit on the character you have on guard.
Protect is used to lower the aggro of a group member on mobs. An example of this is to put protect on a healer so that the heals of the healer does not draw aggro of the mob you are hitting. Another is to put it on a nuker so that the high damage will not draw aggro of mob. This ability does not work in rvr.
Engage is used when 2 or more mobs add to group. The char with engage ability uses his sheild to occupy adds ( as long as other group members do not attack it) with the expense of endurance while the others in the group hit the other mob. This ability does not work in rvr.
Hope I have it right and helped with the subject matter
