Defender is exactly the same on TC2 as it is on Live, minus the Avoid Incapaggro nerf.
öh and every single jedi on there could get a perfect saber in 20 minutes.

ok i tried some temps and too be honest defender now seems aboslutely pointless atleast master seems pointless and mpowers the damage was still low, oh not to mention that when you got your saber which had 140 sac but perfect everywhere else you ran out of action too fast. just some info for you

If you call 235 base melee defense (no bonus from FS branches or bio clothes, just strictly from the Defender dicipline), and 52.5% base damage mitigation pointless, then so be it, but Defenders are still what the dicipline is named: Defenders. They can still protect their group by staying conscious, and that's al lthat matters.
heres a little secret for ya, 0400 enhancer and novice defender is the same initiate armor as defender, get aura and thats all the melee defence you can could need or get aura and the melee defence line and your better than a master defenders defence.
with the new nerf master defender is pretty usless and pointless.

Have you tried high-end PvE or PvP with FA2 ass your main mitigator (as you suggest with FA2 + Novice Defender)...? You'll be out of Force very quickly while a Master Defender will still be plugging away with 75% Force left.
FA2 is great for emergencies, but I'd rather not depend on it for protracted bouts of PvP or PvE.

I use fa2 all the time for krayting and other high end PVE.

thats alot of skill points to throw away for 200 melee defence, how much do you think it'll help with diminished returns.

You still lack the base defense.
Mdefender +aura = 750 ish melee defense
Enhanc + Aura line = 550 ish melee defense
See a difference?
Not to mention Valour rocks!
I hardly use AI anyway. This nerf changes nothing for me. I think its alittle silly but not game breaking. I'm not even sure why they feel the need to make AI usless in a group.
