Editing Paragon Path (section)

===Ward Guardian===
All swordmages rely upon their magical wards to shield themselves from harm and free themselves of the need for mundane armor, but this path gives you a new means to improve your protection and even impart this protection to allies.  This is emphasized in ''Spellshield'', which lets you add the Swordmage Warding bonus to a single NAD whenever you get bloodied, while ''Guardian's Action'' lets you spend an AP to give all allies this benefit for a turn and ''Reactive Spellshield'' adds this to an ally subject to an Opportunity Attack. Ward Force Assault has a decent utility, permitting you to either deal +Con+Warding Bonus in bonus damage or knocking the target prone. Sheltering Ward is a sustainable AoE gives nearby allies the Swordmage Warding, which does limit how you can support your allies. Unseen Entanglement impressively adds +Int and +Con to the attack's damage while also slapping a save-ends -3 penalty to the NAD you picked for Spellshield.

While the concept is rather impressive, the means of spreading this to allies is quite lacking and limited in ways to prevent any attacks from happening.
