I used to laugh and make jokes about these gauntlets because I hated them, as they would only increase the duration of force barrier. However, I think that they will work very well now, because shotgun kills trigger force barrier while these gauntlets are equipped. There have been many times that I only survived because of the extra shield, and I think these gauntlets will go very well with the titan legendary shotgun. If both are used, you use no ammo on kills while in your ward of dawn, and can get force barrier VERY easily if you use weapons of light. Are you going to buy the new ones or not, or do you already have them?
