Ability Fortifying Presence
Type:	Guardian
Effect type:	Activated
Range:	Personal
Activation:	59
Cooldown:	10s
Requires:	Level 22
Description:	The guardian sheaths the entire party in mystical protection, granting each member a temporary bonus to armor, with strength and duration both dependent on the guardian's constitution attribute. Master Guardian increases the armor bonus.

Fortifying Presence is a warrior talent from the Guardian specialization in Dragon Age: Origins - Awakening.

Information Edit

• The guardian applies a buff to the party granting +5-15 Armor for 10-30 seconds, depending on the caster's Constitution. However, the armor provided by this buff decays at a rate of 2.5 per 5 seconds while it is active.
• This ability will stack with itself, but existing stacks retain their duration.
• The scaling of the armor/duration with constitution seems somewhat convoluted. In-game testing indicates it scales as follows:

(where 'Bonus Constution' is 'Value on character sheet - 10')

Notes Edit

• Master Guardian significantly reduces the amount of Constitution you need to cap this ability at 15 armor / 30 seconds duration.
