It rarely lands. Surely the points would be better spent elsewhere? Also know energy cost is a bit of a pain.

Stance, form, shield wall, taunt (warcry depending on your build), shield bash... What else do you put points in enduring guard? Lmao
It rarely lands on necro and 200z mordris and hrun aren't so bad and every other boss it lands most of the time

5 seconds of no damage can be life-saving. And what he said ^

Alright thanks for the info. I was thinking something like
Formation
Stance
Taunt
Shield wall
War cry(or enduring guard
)
It would probably land much more with some melee combat necro rings.

Think of it as 5 secs of total immunity to the mob's/boss' dmg if it lands. Yes melee combat increases chances (although bosses still have insane movement evasion). Some use warcry instead, depends on the tank and how many tanks clan has I guess.

It also says in the description that it makes the mob more likely to target you, which is the whole point of a tank. Also as a noob it lasts just long enough to cast bandage successfully

Don't listen to lego coz all you'll hear is lies
Now seriously, its not only 5 secs of damage immunity as it also helps to recover lost agro, for examle: after got frozen by sreng snorri you will lose agro and after freeze spell is over
cast bash, taunt, warcry and youll get agro back immediately.
Enduring was helpful skill back in v3 on aggy fights and now its kind of useless.
So yes form, stance, taunt, wall maxed. bash depends of the boss level you fighting and rest in warcry.
