Also. They should get some way to help with flanking while standing next to someone. The Champion can flank and still be within range.
agreed! I just played Guardian for my first session with a lvl 1 group (love a lot about it so far!). When I went out into a group of enemies to flank a boss for my other melee party members, I was able to tank a ton of hits with my shield + other feats I took to gain resistances. But because every turn I essentially stood there with my shield up, taunting, and giving off guard (rather than dealing damage) I wanted to make it feel worth it by taking on or mitigating damage for my other party members. Yet I found myself too far away at 10ft to use my intercept strike or reactive shield because of adjacency.
Again, first play at lvl 1, so I imagine I'll learn to play in the limits better and see the power scale at greater levels, but wanted to share that player experience. Cool so far!
