The Hidden Forest

I wanted to see if i am missing any mitigation iteor disciplines that are worth using:

Disciplines:
1. Defender's Guard Rk. I, II or III (Same Timer as Defensive Discipline)
2. Furious Discipline


Items:
1. Rizoel, Blade of The Angel
2. Ring for the Strong
3. Ancient Frozen Sword of the Champion
4. Ring of Winter (seems bugged sometimes)
5. Ring of the Clawed Guardian
6. Viscu's Crested Breastplate
7. Vadd's Gauntlets of Elite Combat
8. Molten Ice (Afraid to use this due to loss of agro)


Songs:
1. Kazumi's Note of Preservation (Afraid to use this due to loss of agro)

Any other ideas? I did not list WOS pet clicky buff or the ring from Wind because they are buffs. The main issue is I am running out of discs in a long fight.

webtools/items.php?id=121286 - Immaculate Ring of Dolgrem

this is an upgrade to the ring of the clawed guardian, it drops off the twins raid in t8. It has a 45 minute recast instead of 1 hour. Between the donor weapon, defenders guard, and your rings, you should have up to an hours worth of fight time in defensive mode. Also, keep in mind that duration foci effect the length of clicky item discs, so with that foci, you should be able to cycle back in forth between defenders guard, your donor, defenders guard, a different click, defenders guard, your donor, defenders guard, a third click, etc.

Cry of Warning IV

Cry of Warning doesn't provide a damage mitigation component anymore, but increases damage taken with some + avoidance

I personally use the following, in order of priority due to cooldowns:

1. [Item] Rizoel, Blade of The Angel
2. [Disc] Defender's Guard Rk. III
3. [Item] Immaculate Ring of Dolgrem
4. [Item] Ring for the Strong
5. [Item] Viscu's Crested Breastplate [Situational]
6. [Disc] Furious Discipline [Situational]
7. [Item] Vadd's Gauntlets of Elite Combat [Situational]
8. [Item] Ancient Frozen Sword of the Champion [HP Buff]
9. [Disc] Commanding Voice [20% dodge]
10. [Item] Ring of the Constable [10% dodge]

Is this incorrect or am I reading it wrong? webtools/spell.php?id=9067
1 : Effect type : Increase Chance to Avoid Melee by 35%
2 : Effect type : Increase Melee Mitigation by -20%

Compare to Defender's Guard Rk. II
1 : Effect type : Increase Melee Mitigation by -49%

You're right, apologies! I just remember using it for the early days on Draekon when he hit like a truck. One day Cry of Warning just randomly became absolutely useless - when previously it was a very viable short-term mitigation disc. Then again, 20% on a mob that hits for 12-15k per hit isn't much.
