Saint 14 is a must have for PvE.
Titans are cool, and titans are cool.
Commander Zavala is a titan, Kabr is a titan, Shaxx is a titan.
All the major badasses are titans.

[spoiler]why not make a titan?[/spoiler]
There was a youtube video I saw a while ago, it was 5 defender titans and 1 gunslinger. Once the titans got their supers, they'd have 3 up minimum (WoL, AoL and BoL), so they'd survive a voidwalker novabomb. But that was hardly an issue. The golden gun user had their super up infinitely and they'd destroy the other team.
On playing solo, having armour of light is useful as some enemies think they can run into your bubble, so shotgun/punch combo is a great thing. Also having a bubble up on a control node is always a good thing.
I'd say if you were more of a team player (with VOIP), I'd go defender for sure as it's more fun. Strikers are alright solo, but their super tends to be outclassed easily, unless if you have a good support from your team.
Defender bubbles, juggernaut, weapons and blessing of light, fist of havoc, look badass, shoulder charge, And they have the best stuff to maximize heavy weapons like ruin wings, and the ability to create a ton of orbs
