'Ward' is just a fluffy way of saying 'universal' - it comes from the tabletop nomenclature where it means 'unmodifiable' and exists as a second layer of protection that's effective against everything. I tested in custom game, he own both Arachnarok spider and Grimgor solo.

It is possible to attain 80% ward block, 10% physical resistance and 35% missile resistance, which makes him immune to missiles, block 90% of physical melee damage and 80% magical damage, all of which is further reduced through armour etc. The highest ward block attainable in the unmodded vanilla version is with the Chaos Legendary hero Kholek.
A ward block of 65% combined with a missile block of 35% will make you completely invulnerable to missile fire (including artillery). All ward blocks stack, so if you have a ward blocks of 20%, 10% & 35% then your total ward block will be 65%.
