The Defender subclass is the main class I use in-game. But in the crucible, I don't see the point of summoning an instant shield if the shield doesn't work at all. One shot from a Golden gun, slam from a striker or a void blast and it's all over. The supercharge is just SO underpowered. I reckon it shouldn't be able to be destroyed unless the person who summons it gets killed or it despawns. I'd even go as far as saying Bungie should release another Exotic armor piece allowing anyone on the Defender's team to shoot through the shield, because the Weapons of light is useless if you have to step outside the shield to use it. What are your thoughts?

Defender titan is my go to as well, but I can't agree with anything here. The bubble is far from useless; it's just counter-intuitive. It doesn't really function as a shield, but instead as a super target (to waste supers), choke point defense, and support via weapons or armor of light. There are no situations in PvP (at least off the top of my head) where players are completely unable to retaliate against incoming attacks, as you're suggesting should be an option. Given the other stellar bonuses from WoD, such an advantage is completely uncalled for.
