Uses, synergies, and suggested builds

In general

Solid defender for use in boss fights, but otherwise lacks synergy with other familiars.

PVE/Bosses

A solid defender when going up against any type of boss monster, it further reduces damage taken when bosses go into low-health/rampage mode, aka when boss attacks are most dangerous. The resistance to knockdown/knockback effects can also be useful.

PVP

Its defense is focused on boss monsters, and while its increased resistance to knockdown/knockback effects may look good on paper, it has little synergy with most PVP focused builds.

Adventure/Arena mode

Damage isn't that good has a very long cooldown. Knockback may push an enemy out of harm's way but you would probably prefer a familiar with higher damage or actual defensive abilities.
