[[File:Protect_GUI.png]] Protect Spells are a long-lasting (30 minutes) buff used to increase [[defense]]. There are two varieties of Protect spell:
* Protect Spells: Single Target and native to [[White Mage]], [[Red Mage]], [[Scholar]], [[Paladin]], and [[Rune Fencer]].
* Protectra Spells: AoE (10') and native to [[White Mage]] only.<br />

=== Enhancing Gear ===
There are currently two pieces of gear ([[Brachyura Earring]] and [[Sheltered Ring]]) that enhance Protect potency when worn while receiving the spell effect. So, if you were in a party of 6 people and only one player was wearing the enhancing gear, only that player would receive the effect enhancement.
*The effects from these two items do not stack.
*Wearing both items would only give the effect of one item.

=== Paladin & Shield Barrier Trait ===

At level 70, Paladin gets access to [[Shield Barrier]] trait which increases the Defence boost of Protect Spells cast by a [[Paladin]] by the amount of DEF the equipped shield has.
* e.g. a shield with DEF: 130 would make a PLD's Protect V give a total of +350 (220 + 130) Defense.

A level 70+ Paladin can cast Protect V to all members of the party within range and bonus applies to all party members. This makes Paladin Protect V more potent than a WHM.
