So ive been playing Destiny for pretty much 17+hrs a day since its release on the 9th. I always like to play the tank class in every mmo esk kinda game so when i saw the defender class i knew that this was the class i wanted to play. Issue is that the defender class is probably lacking a lot of stats to make it feel like a "tank". to give a few good examples - 1. my armor should be nowhere near a dps class, but at the moment it is about the same 2. i have no sort of aura or tank stance that allows my teammates to take less damage, my current class boils down to "i can drop a shield that i can use to mitigate selective damage while im rezzing a teammate 3. Defender titans are pretty much hilariously undermined when it comes to using our special in pvp, strikers - warlocks and certain abilities can pretty much negate the shield i drop with their own, striker and warlocks special and actually just counter mine. 4. the bonus i receive from being in a shield in pvp does not keep me alive what so ever, i cant even eat a shotgun shell when someone rushes into my bubble but the bladedancer special damage mitigation allows them to pretty much eat ~3 shells and keep going.
