Re: is defence worth it?
defense is like being gay...its not worth it
Re: is defence worth it?
For the most part it is true. However, with my 400 defense I have been able to kill bengal
tigers with only taking maybe 15 damage... That is with a CM and less than 700 strength.

Haha, when I read this title I thought that this was about defense forces of countries, like armies and anti-terrorism stuff... apparently I was very wrong.
Re: is defence worth it?
so should i not level it at all? moderatley? a shitload?
Re: is defence worth it?
If you are going to start levelling as a warrior then my best piece of advice is to only concentrate on Strength and Stamina.
Although some may say to add some constitution and Defense...I think until you are a much higher level then these stats would prove better results being put in either strength or Stamina.
At a later stage you may want to add a smidge of defense to equip a good plate.
I'm opening up a shop that sells 13" rulers just so Fireborn stops complaining.

Intelligence is the best warrior attribute.

Bullshit, magic is and always has been the best.

Re: is defence worth it?
What defense basically does is give you some extra armour class... you could consider this the equivalent a small extra hp bar which has to be somewhat broken before actual damage to your real hp is done, and this bar will recharge if your hp is full again and you just give it a bit of time...
I think that in general you can get a similar (except greater) effect from putting the same stats you might wanna put into defense, into stamina (more hp) and constitution (for faster hp regen). Defense can be useful/effective if you have plenty of it, but in general isnt worth the stat points it costs to get to that point. (Unless of course you have maxed your stats in other areas, or wanna PK and hope the extra AC will let you survive a warrior duel 4 instead of 3 hits) Const is also sexy cuz it works for your entire hp range and it lets you run longer n stuff.
So basically as Jesus3 said: focus on stamina and strength as a warrior. And dependent on what kind of monsters you fight and what access to potions and elixirs you have, you could add some const sooner or later. (Const wont help you kill monsters you otherwise couldnt, itll just help you recover more quickly in between so basically lets you take on larger spawns or whatnot).

increasing my defense for the past 35 levels, has in effect, increased my longetivity during battles with things I can't kill by... 6 seconds.
It is high time I put something intelligent here.

Putting points into stamina has made me last 3 seconds longer during mastrubation!

I am proud I really am.
