Defender icon is an item worn in the jaw slot, a back-end Worn Equipment slot system where facial hair is placed^[1] while playing Barbarian Assault. It shows that the player is a defender indicated by the blue circle around them with the defender symbol. When a game of Barbarian Assault finishes, the icon is removed.

Having a higher level in the Defender role, which can be done via Commander Connad or choosing to do so immediately after a game, allows players to have an increased luring range when luring Penance Runners.

Changes

Date	Changes
[[{{#explode:30 May 2019\| \|0}} {{#explode:30 May 2019\| \|1}}]] [[{{#explode:30 May 2019\| \|2}}]] (update \| poll)	The Barbarian Assault role icons are now equipped in the jaw slot instead of the cape slot, allowing players to wear capes within games. As a result, the item is no longer visible in the Worn Equipment interface. The "Wear" option was renamed to "Equip". The item was made usable by free-to-play players, although it cannot be obtained by them.

Trivia

As items in the jaw slot remove existing facial hair from the player's model, a fake beard is built into the equipped model to appear as if it was never removed^[2]. Thus, the defender icon has 16 different equipped models, one for each facial hairstyle that currently exists.^[3]
