How to get Defender Guard

The sources the game lists for this item (its acquisition routes), and the monsters whose reward tables drop it, best chance per kill first.

Quest and achievement rewards: Defender Guard

From the quests' reward tables (QuestReward, QuestClassReward) and the journal's achievement steps (AchievementReward). A bonus roll is a reward package: each of its slots comes up on its own (RewardPackage, out of 100,000,000) and then gives one item by weight (RewardPackageItem). Chance per completion = 1 − Π(1 − slot chance × weight) over the slots that hold the item — our calculation.

Decompose

Costs 4,000 Kinah. Every group in the item's DecomposeResultItemGroup gives its package (RewardDecomposePackage, one per enhance level); amounts are added up.

At +10, decomposing gives back 8,408 Enhance Stone, 8,305 more than at +0 — 100% of the 8,305 spent on average getting there. Up to +10 it returns every Enhance Stone spent; past that, the stones lost to failed tries do not come back. Our calculation, same model as the enhance block.
