Are you trying to claim that self reviving in PVP is useful, there's only 1 game type where self Rez is useful, in every other game type every class has a "get out of death free card" it's called the re spawn button. Defenders are a bit lacklustre in PVP and you need to be smart about where you put your bubble but I think a lot of the problems with it could be fixed with some good creative exotic design imagine how viable defender would be if there where exotics like WOD will not despawn over time and must be destroyed to remove or an exotic that makes it so you can't see into a WOD and people inside don't appear on radar (it'd stop all the spam supers that get thrown at it) that being said defender Titan is the only subclass I've played in PVP and actually got nice messages from teammates ( loads of people thanking me for bubbling heavy ammo in IB you'd be surprised how many are willing to wait for teammates to get heavy when they have a bubble to stand in, most matches we had all 6 with heavy it made a nice change :P )
