Sword and Board is lacking in an aoe ability.

In my honest opinion the base shield charge should have started out aoe, then applied the morphs like they are.(keeping the aoe of course)

And if you want to be really friendly I would appriciate it if you cut the damage 25% and disorient 50% of power bash and make that a 8 meter AoE attack as well. Then let the morphs build off that.

This will help with group aggro by a massive amount.

This is just my opinion. I could be wrong, it's happened once or twice.

But severely overstocked with utility and defensive capability.

Its a sword and board, not a swiss army knife.

If you want AoE I suggest Dual Wield or Two Handed. S&B is excellent for defence and single target and very effective too. Maybe throw in something from your Class skill lines? I have a S&B Templar and AoEs from Aedirc Spear and Dawn's Wrath complement it very nicely.

In an "anyone can tank with this" tree you don't expect 1 AoE ability?

That's what class skills are for. If they added an AOE to this skill line you could probably get by the entire game just having all 5 of your slots filled with it.

Basically I'm saying its a *** fantastic line and doesn't need to get better.
