Dwarven defenders (or earthkin defenders as they are now) as they are perhaps the most underwhelming class avaible. I have some ideas to fix them and make them more appealing.

The concept of dwarven defender in my mind is an immovable wall between his allies, klan and the enemies, thus I suggest following changes (or at least some of them) to this class.

HD increased do d14 from d12

Defensive Stance:

-no longer provides and bonus to con and str
- has a 5 round CD
- +2 to ab
- +2 to all saves at level 5, increased to +4 at level 10, +2 to all saves aura at level 15, +4 to all saves aura at level 20
- +1 regen aura per 5 DD levels
- 2 DR to allies per 6 DD levels
- "-guard" aura at level 10 (all alies in the radius have -guard)
- +1 damage to enemies not attacking the DD per 2 DD levels

Thanks for the suggestion. Approved.

With the change in this class from 'Dwarven' to 'Earthkin' Defender I'd already slated it for a rework and opened a discussion with our developers as to what is the best course of action.

I'll add your own suggestions to mine in the developer forums.
