Default Bonetti's Defense or Balthazar's Spirit

Which is better, Bonetti's Defense or Balthazar's Spirit, in your opinion? I have just started using balthazar's spirit for soloing missions, and I am going to experiment with it for powerleveling/solo farming. Balth spirit seems much better, considering you dont have to work for the adrenaline to activate bonetti's defense. But, if you are leveling or soloing, it also limits the amount of -1 enchants you can use on you when you have up balth spirit. So, which one works more efficiently overall?

More like bring them both, Balthazar's Spirit is a good enchantment, but Bonnetti's gets the block. If I had to choose I'd go with Balzathar's Spirit though.

Depends. :P

One's an enchant, one's a stance. So they can live happily together on your shitty little skill bar.

You get adrenaline from balthazars. As far as I know, 3,8 and 12 smite are the breakpoints for adrenaline gain.

I don't know if it's that great of an idea to bring both unless you plan on tanking a ridiculous amount of mobs at once. The problem is that the skills' utilities conflict with each other. Spirit gives energy and adren when you get hit, and the Bonetti's prevents you from being hit. If you feel the need to have some blocking, go with Bonetti's and bring Cyclone Axe and a zealous axe, which will supply you with plenty of energy as well as adrenaline to fuel Bonetti's.

I think the whole reason for bringing both is if your tanking lets say, 8-10 hydra at once (like my 55 does ) But if your only going up against like 2-3 guys Bonnetti's is quite useless.
