There was a reason for that though.I mean, that's how things worked in the old days. Monsters attacked whoever was closest to them, who needs defender mechanics? Bah!
Man I miss those defender mechanics.
It's bizarre that the Barbarian is likely the best defender in 5e, since when Rage is up, they take less damage, but enemies can't afford to ignore them. And if they're using Savage Attacker, who can turn down that nice juicy advantage to hit?
