    +3% to defense stat, not to damage resistance.

    Yes, so a +3% Defense Rating probably translates a +0.5% (or even less) DR bonus given that Defense Rating has such severe diminishing returns.

    Pretty much. You roll Human for the 3 Feats, not really for the Defense. It is actually WAY underpowered compared to the Halflings' flat 3% Deflection Chance (yes, they get Chance, not Rating).

    Yeah, and your comment is why it should be toned down to +3% deflect stat.

    Why always nerf what is good instead of buffing what is bad?

    Leave the Halfling at 3% Deflection chance and buff the Human defense bonus to +3% DR.
    PSA: You don't need to grind Spinward Rise for your Elemental artifact main hand if you have some AD lying around. You can craft it via the Tyranny of Dragon's campaign screen.
