Tactical Information
Bastion of Light is most commonly used by Blue-line Guardians to generate initial aggro of enemies. It can also be used to spread some of the Guardian's most potent effects to nearby enemies. Red-line Guardians usually focus more on damage than debuffs, but there are some situations where this skill would be used.
