buff defenders or nah?
Simple question, make the weakest most underused class a bit stronger in pvp?
-
1 ReplyI think ward of dawn should have a tether-esque effect inside of it. But only on supers. So if you are using a super like arc blade, sunsinger, stormcaller, or any other moving super, it goes away when you step inside of the shield
-
Weakest most underused? I think they aren't the most underused class for a while now and definitely not weak
-
the only 2 things it needs im my opinion Is a bubble durability buff and make it so force barrier procks on hit rather than on a kill
-
Why buff? They are in a really good place imo. They're just underused.
-
Weapons of light with a high-impact sniper one-shot kills in the crucible.
-
Defenders OP right now in Ib lol Universal remote with no backup plans, armor to max, and unbreakable and relentless perks. Way to OP
-
Its good now. You just need to know the best ways to utilize it.
-
I think a super should destroy the bubble and NOT harm anyone inside. And I think it should take the entire super, for example three golden gun shots. Other than that, I don't think Bungie is going to significantly buff any abilities or supers for PvP. Their philosophy seems to be reducing ALL supers and abilities by attrition, with more nerfs than buffs, so weapon damage plays a bigger role.

4 RepliesBuff Sunsinger too

TBH, Defender is OK. The suppressor grenade is beautiful, same with magnetic. Melee is fine. Supers should get a SMALL buff. Titans should have extra armor while in the bubble tbh. It's quite easy to kill a Titan in a bubble. I main a Hunter and I approve this message <3
-
Spike grenade should be stronger like a Lightning grenade Suppressor should last longer +1 Armor to Relentless perk
-
As a defender main this is what I want. 1: 3 GG shots to take down the bubble 2: Nova bomb takes down bubble but blast doesn't kill those inside, of course the aoe can still kill people if its equipped 3: A person with Blessing of light can survive one shotgun blast even if it leaves them at a one hit of base health 4: Armor of light makes everyone harder to push out of bubble 5: Fist of havoc can't destroy bubble from the outside 6: Stormtrance can't destroy bubble from outside unless it uses the whole supper to do so 7: Sunsinger grenades can't destroy bubble from outside unless it takes the whole super to do so 8: tethers don't destroy the bubble or 3 tethers destroy the bubble and disappear upon hit Basically I just want supers to cancel out the bubble evenly and blessing of light to be slightly stronger, and to not get thrown out by one melee hit, if I could have only one of these I'd take super canceling super any day of the week

4 RepliesTitans already have the most buffs. Don't need to be all that stronger.
-
10 RepliesNah, it's actually one of the more balanced classes in the game.
-
It's designed for defensive play (hence the name.) Buffing it would make it OP.
-
Only make it so people cant kill you with their supers unless they are inside your bubble.
-
It's not weak, though.
-
Defenders only deserve a buff if they get rid of bubble chaining.
-
11 RepliesI think sunsingers are far worse in crucible than defenders now.
-
No, it's not even the weakest class, most people just have no clue how to use it properly in the crucible.
-
I would say no since they are a support class, ie they make the team stronger. If your goal is to increase KD, then it should come at a cost on the shield strength/defense of team mates.
-
1 ReplyIf I'm not mistaken because i play defender a couple times and it seems 1 golden gun pops my bubble.
-
1 ReplyShotgun No Back Up Plan Force barrier build Prophet
-
4 RepliesMake the bubble literally invincible or keep its durability the same but the bubble moves with you, with you as the epicenter.

1 ReplyI initially read this as "butt defenders or nah?"
-
1 ReplyThey're not made for PvP, but can be used effectively if you adapt your playing. The reason their overall K/D is low is people use them like every other class, not strategically.
