“The guardians of the righteous cleave to those whose existence is a virtuous one.” -The Precepts of Akkhan

Eternal Union

Normally the archers and bodyguards from Phalanx fade away after a few seconds. This ring removes that timer entirely: your summoned allies stay at your side permanently and keep fighting without interruption. That turns a short-lived summon into a standing miniature army that piles on pressure alongside your own attacks.

The ring is squarely aimed at the Crusader and forms the backbone of a Phalanx-focused summoner build. It rolls one of the three primary stats, and for the Crusader only Strength actually matters. Practical tip: because your guardians persist, it pays to pick skills and runes that boost their damage or attack frequency, so you squeeze the most out of your permanent retinue.

Only two runes benefit

The power affects just two Phalanx runes. Bowmen deal 185% weapon damage and normally follow you for only 5 seconds; they can be summoned once every 15 seconds. Bodyguard calls 2 Avatars of the Order that each attack for 560% of your weapon damage as Physical and otherwise stay by your side for 10 seconds, with one summon every 30 seconds. With the ring, the time limit is gone. Shield Charge, Stampede and Shield Bearers gain nothing from it.

What to look for on the ring

There is no roll range on the power, so any copy will do. What matters is the main stat at 416 to 500 points - Strength for a Crusader. A Primal Ancient reaches the full 500 points, and the Mystic can reroll a weak secondary property. If you want to push Phalanx further, Warhelm of Kassar is a complement that raises the skill's damage.

Guardians of the righteous

The flavor text comes from The Precepts of Akkhan: the guardians of the righteous cleave to those whose existence is a virtuous one - which is exactly what your avatars do thanks to the ring, with no expiry date.
