If it's a mix of encounters and dailies, it at least means that they can be a defender every encounter. If say, the defender stuff comes from a combination of abjuration powers and the school class features (and they are worded like normal school features, in that they trigger off using abjuration powers), you are still, at best, a hybrid defender (like the hybrid fighter who only marks when he uses his fighter attack powers instead of his other ones). So an abjurer would be a hybrid defender/controller depending on which attacks they use. The dailies could, perhaps, give them an opportunity to switch to their non-abjuration powers [i.e. most encounter and at-wills mark until EoNT, but the dailies are either sustainable or save/ends; so that when they drop a daily, they can use powers that don't mark for a couple rounds].</blockquote>
