Yes I am aware about you stating that it is armor balance but take into account that the warlock wears cloth, the hunter wears leather, and the titan wears plate armors. Now I understand that this is not D&D but so to speak the cloth armor would prevent the warlock from failing to cast its spell and any defense they had would come from a spell like mage armor hence why you can have 1400 defense but no actual armor. Now of course you can increase armor rating which would henceforth make a similar 'battlemage' or increase speed which would make a 'telemage' The hunter in this case the 'rogue' wears leather which forms to the bottom and bends virtually to their will making them very AGILE hence the increased agility and they are usually easier to make tougher than a warlock/mage. While this class is a little harder to balance than a warlock you can make the 'assassin' (invisibility and close range of course) and the archer excelling at long range (invisibility and sniper who would've guessed?) Of course both apply also to the gunslinger class just both lacking invisibility. The titan however wearing the biggest piece of metal in the game without relying on tricks dawns their own set of plate armor. This armor being very heavy slows them and makes them a walking bullseye along the battlefield. Just as long as no one gets a glorious headshot they are okay. (Now I understand the armor rating in the game isn't as much as it seems, also keep in note that armor only effects the adrenaline zone of your health which is the red area after the while is depleted.) It gives them that better survivability to reach that corner and turn for cover or to run into the enemy guns blazing and fist ready. You can prepare the 'berserker/barbarian' an armor/agility build the warrior has been finely train to where his armor feels virtually weightless and can maneuver the area better than the nimblest of hunters and who needs invisibility when you can pick up the car beside you as mobile cover. Or you can go 'Paladin' my favorite armor/recovery you're slow but almost nearly immortal you crest your own cover for safety and to help your allies. And once you recover you begin to fast the for face on again.And remember that car that your berserker friend picked up? How about you take it from him and throw it. Keep in mind each class of course can be manipulate to give partials of each lacking stat which can be just as deadly. And yes I know the game doesn't scream mmo but they said SLIGHT mmo qualities and it can be seen. So think of defense not as ''that warlock is wearing -blam!-ing clothes why does he have better defense than me?'' That warlock might have a spell that deflects bullets away and around his body. ''But what about that hunter I don't see him using any spells?'' Maybe he's so damn fast he dodges bullets? And you Mr.Titan what are you? 1. A brick that is being constantly remade. (Armor/recovery) Or 2. A brick that was picked up and thrown at someone you particularly don't care for. (Armor/agility)
