Who uses it and why
In the 6-wearer sample no single class reaches the ten-wearer reporting line, so Anguish Guard reads as a thinly spread pick rather than a class staple. Wearers lean Dark (66.7% Dark vs 33.3% Light), a bit wider than the even split the sampling quota would give.
Region mix of wearers: NA East 33.3%, Europe 16.7%, Latin America 33.3%, NA West 16.7%. The sample uses an equal per-region quota, so this mix does not show the real regional player split. Sampled 2026-10-26, confidence Official-sample.
Top band vs rest
| Band | Characters | Wearers | Share |
|---|---|---|---|
| Top band (ranks 1-50 per class) | 200 | 1 | |
| Rest (ranks 51-200 per class) | 600 | 5 |
The two bands nearly match (0.5% at the top, 0.8% below), within the five point band we treat as flat, so Anguish Guard is neither a finisher piece nor a hand-me-down in this sample. Shares are taken among Gladiator, Ranger, Chanter and Sorcerer characters only, the classes that wear it.

Enchant distribution
| Enchant level | Uses |
|---|---|
| +0 | 2 |
| +3 | 1 |
| +7 | 1 |
| +10 | 2 |
Across 6 sampled wearers the p25, median and p90 enchant are +0.8, +5 and +10. The single most common level is +0 (2 uses), and the p90 of +10 touches the official cap of +10, meaning the strongest wearers push it to the ceiling. Its median of +5 runs about 5.0 under the sub hand slot median of +10, so wearers stop enchanting earlier than usual for the slot.
How to get it and priority
The official data lists these sources: Reward Chest, Expedition, Sanctuary.
Our read on priority: Worth picking up. Signals in favour: top-five pick in its slot (rank 5); the official data lists a named source; typical wearers stop at +5 of a +10 cap, so it works without deep investment.
Editorial. Anguish Guard scores 3 points. Score one point each for: top-five rank in its slot, a slot share of 30% or more, being tradable, a listed source, and a median enchant at half the cap or lower; top-two slot rank scores two, and when the top band wears it at least five points less than the rest we subtract one for being a stepping stone. Four or more points is high priority, two or three is worth picking up.
