This catalogue filters the Warrior dataset to Protection and connects shield, Rage and defensive nodes to the routes that use them.
Talent names, ranks, positions and tooltips come from dual-source client records reviewed through build 1.60.1.69913. Build allocations and playstyle notes are editorial testing routes, not official best builds.
