Guide about Defense in 2Moons
You will know about Defense with your level (2moons gold) up. It is important to keep your defense as high as possible for your character. We had make our buff up around 745 for our current defense when level 52.
Maybe you have notice that vs. mobs it seems to make 0 differences in how hard or how often they hit you. If the mob is red or white they do the same dmg to me no matter what I do buff or not buffed could even take half my armor off and it does not change.
For instance you ever notice how when a red mob hits you get knocked around in 2Moons, well the higher defense you have the faster you can recover from hits or be totally unparsed by them completely. For instance level 54 mage with very high defense (over 650) can lead an aoe train a lot better then some knights who totally neglect defense.
For PVP defense is extremely important because when someone higher level (2moon dil) hits you if you stumble it will interrupt your skills. The higher defense the less you become interrupted. But as far as damage it has no effect. Damage is based on level vs level only, mitigation is only achieved from physical resistance, and avoidance from Gaurd and block.
