You are correct, much like the "Vie" series of spells, this will absorb 5% of each melee hit you take, for up to 100 damage.

Example; Badguy hits you for 153 damage!
(Guard II absorbs 7.8 damage)
(Guard II has 92 HP left)

Not a great effect i.m.o
~ Tank potentially loses an "anger effect" aug slot
~ Not going to make a huge difference in a group situation
~ Might be handy for a raid tank (does it stack with Bulwark of Vie?)
~ Vie spell buffs absorb 10% dmg and there's probably going to be a Cleric around in a raid, no?
~ Useful for soloing for melee classes
