Protect increases your def (and Mdef if WHM) by 15%, this works in lvl 30 and 40 wolves den

However, lvl 50 wolves den has Def and MDef replaced by morale and using protect does not increase morale

I could get some friends together to test it, but as it stands im fairly sure that the only use protect has is a buffer so the enemy paladin can't instantly glory slash your stoneskin off, thats about it

I've never actually questioned it though to be honest, so i might do some mythbusting when i have 8 people online
