Lol, I love the notes "Seems rather useless compared to Aegis". This skill screaaaaams for a buff. It would be really nice if it had an adrenaline cost with a short recharge (similar to Lyric of Zeal) instead. --[[User:Ufelder|Ufelder]] 02:37, 6 December 2006 (CST)

Pretty weak for an elite... it's basically a cheaper and weaker version of Aegis that got the elite tag stuck on it. [[User:Skyreal|Skyreal]] 19:42, 16 December 2006 (CST)

nerf stick

the fact they made this skill an elite is despicable. it's worse than aegis in almost every way except for the fact it's not an enchantment. the 5 second less recharge is balanced by the fact aegis can easily be countered--Coldeye 00:56, 24 September 2006 (CDT)

Well, it costs less than Aegis, factoring in the Leadership bonus, but... Yeah, it's a bit of a nuisance. Aegis lasts as long per rank, and can be buffed by enchanting mods. Defensive Anthem was a superb non-elite, but now it's a mediocre elite. Still, one must keep in mind that you can't compare skills between professions. It's been said, since the creation of elites, that elites are not always strictly better than anything, so much as they may allow you to do things a profession wouldn't normally be able to do. Case in point, paragon doesn't block/evade things, and Defensive Anthem allows them to, and all without leaving Leadership, which is a rather good skill line. I run it fairly often because I don't really like many of the other great non-elites that ended up becoming elite. Merengue 17:49, 24 September 2006 (CDT)
It does cost less than aegis factoring in leadership bonus, but you have to also consider the fact that paragon has 2 pips of regen(which is why we have leadership bonus).
Also, the new mesmer skill Mirror of Disenchantment might make Aegis less viable

Hey, it counts toward the title....but then again, it sucks. The preceding unsigned comment was added by 71.75.49.206 (contribs) .
