How it drops
Hellmaw Bulwark is a rare unique for the shield slot, always on a Tower Shield base. A rare unique, power grade 2 of 5: it falls 4.4× less often than a standard unique. Uniques fall from the Risings; a floor drop is one only once in 100,000. Inside each tier a grade 5 falls 8× less often than a grade 1. Only one copy of a unique can be worn at a time.
Stats
Uniques roll a fixed set of affixes chosen to serve the power; only the values roll, from the depth the item drops at and its quality. Below is Hellmaw Bulwark exactly as the game rolls it at quality 100, at three depths.

Builds it belongs to
It lives in the The tank: damage bought with defense family of uniques, alongside The Yielding Wall, Daybreak Aegis, Glancing Plate, Vengeful Horn, Lorespun Robe, Petrified Heart. Stacking uniques from one family is how a mechanic is pushed past what affixes alone allow.
