=== Shield Specialization / Anticipation ===

'''Shield Specialization''' - 5 points 
# Increases your chance to block attacks with a shield by 5%. (1 per point)

OK, you probably don't need to be told this is only good if you intend to be using a shield frequently. Instances / groups for the most part but not really PvP or solo (although you can solo just fine with a shield thanks). Problem with blocking is it doesn't totally negate the block attacked, but rather reduce it by the value listed on the shield plus a strength bonus. If you're going this route, don't forget a shield spike.

'''Utility Rank:''' 4/10 (1 person rating) 
''Not useful for those shieldless times and doesn't reduce nearly as much damage as deflection'' 
'''Cost Rank:''' 8/10 (1 person rating) 
''If you're putting at least 11 points in protection, 5 of them should be here (imp. shield block rocks)'' 
'''Overall Rank:''' 6/10 (1 person rating) 
''Not overwhelming, but it's a necessary evil (a theme in the protection tree).'' 

'''Anticipation''' - 5 points 
# Increases your Defense skill by 10. (2 per point)

Underwhelming. 10 additional defense skill gives you 0.4% additional chance to dodge/parry and reduces your chance of being critted by a mob.

'''Utility Rank:''' 2/10 (1 person rating) 
''About less than 1/5th as useful as deflection. Go to arms if you want the best tier 1 mitigation talent.'' 
'''Cost Rank:''' 2/10 (1 person rating) 
''A lot of better talents out there. Only for those building the prot tree who know they will [[never]] use shield block.'' 
'''Overall Rank:''' 9/10 (1 person rating) 
''Just get it already...''
