will that be very good against boss or anything else? Does GTB prevent to receive magic damage from spell too?

GTB+Amon Ra don't mix well. GTB will not allow Kyrie to apply, but it will still cast and give the after-cast delay, but no effect. You can work around this by swapping shields to another for the kyrie cast, then back to GTB, but it's not really that great.

 

Amon ra is nice on a sura tank, I like it most of AB tank (because I alt+tab the AB and am not always there to keep kyrie up). 

 

Edit: But GTB+DR work very nicely, since GTB does block all magic damage. Keep in mind GTB won't protect you from Elemental Attacks, so it's important to use the right armor if you're facing something with strong ele attacks.

how about ghostring card?

GR is kinda lame, it only helps vs neutral skill attacks. DR reduces all neutral attacks (physical melee and skill)

[Necrohealiac]

GR is really only useful vs. EQ, but if you have GTB doesn't that eliminate the need for it?

[Havenn]

Pretty much. Does GR reduce hells judgement? I think so, but could be wrong. Though really, not very worth it since to defend HJ I use Alice shield+DR and it is but a scratch

angeling,bryn or some heavy comodo carded armor would go great with a GTB+DR and if ur super rich of course u prob have a gloom or ktullanux.

GR reduces every skill based attack of neutral element, for autos its completely useless, but nice against skills. Its also teh only thing that can reduce EQ damage, since it ignores any type of reduction from cards/gears, but can't ignore target element.

I've always wondered why this happens. Kyrie Eleison, along with Gloria and Magnificat fall into a subclass of support skills called Eulogy skills, yet only Gloria and Magnificat work around GTB. Thinking logically shouldn't KE also work against GTB? I think it should....Whatever, the world works in unpredictable ways for us RO gamers.
