·Multi-source verified (126/128)

Survival in Wraeclast depends on understanding defensive mechanics. Life is your primary health pool. Energy Shield acts as a secondary health pool that recharges after not taking damage. Armour reduces physical damage taken. Evasion grants a chance to avoid incoming attacks. Resistances (Fire, Cold, Lightning, Chaos) reduce elemental and chaos damage. A balanced defense, often combining several of these, is crucial for endgame content.
