There are more reactions, those that already existed are usable in more circumstances and have more uses per day.  Additionally, many which were optional from feat/fighting style were not used because they were not very powerful and they are now way more powerful meaning you will see them a lot (protection and Defensive Duelist in particular).  Finally any character can get the Shield spell through an Origin Feat without multiclassing.Quote from Treantmonk in his video on spells that were not fixed:"They gave a whole bunch more reactions defenses"Thanks for the correction</blockquote>
