  • The highlight of this sword is its requirements -50% mod, chance to block and faster hit recovery.
  • Because of this, it is best chosen by either a Concentrate Barbarian or a PitZerker as a budget weapon.

D2Emu Tips

  • Swordguard's defense now scales from 7 to 779 with character level (708 at level 90), alongside All Resistances +20–30%, Replenish Life +10–15, and Attacker Takes Damage of 15–25. 3.4
  • Only a Barbarian can benefit from this item's Increased Chance of Blocking, as no other class can simultaneously wield a two-handed sword and shield.
  • Although there are many better 2-handers, the Warlock is the only class that can take full advantage of the 2-handed damage and 20% Increased Chance Of Blocking on Swordguard.
