That 5% makes, from 82 to 87, means it takes about 1.5x as much damage to kill. Every single defense point raises your effective HP by the same amount. There is no "wasted" amount in that sense.
Of course, there are sources of damage that ignore defense altogether, but that's another topic.
It is wasted, IMO in that there are probably other abilities that could have been more effective than gradual gain of 5% defense, it is not instantaious. to each their own though. I don't really chase DC.
The 375% defense add is not new, could have been done with older DC sets.
is 80% + damage mitigatation nuts? Yes. Was it possible before? Yes. I CG going to change it? Probably not.
