But we do have the ability to equip chest armor and boots that influence how our subclasses work. I notice a large difference in how quickly I can die when Im NOT wearing a chest that increases my subclass armor, on top of having maxed armor. Chest armor is substituting the armor from having a Ram helmet. I have no trouble dealing with Sunbreakers in pvp. I have loads of trouble dealing with Stormcallers. I have yet to die even once to Sunbreaker the past 3 days of Iron banner/crucible, but every game I play has a quiver glitching hunter.
