This way not only is defense scaled so it keeps up with the increase in damage that monsters deal, defense scrolls keep their usefulness through all levels (because +5 def w/ 500 def is worth more than 5 def w/ 100 def)
So my 283 defense as a Pirate would equal... 626 defense of damage reduction (Was it -313 static damage, or actually -626 damage?).
Yes please. This is so simple, yet so effective. It encourages warriors to stand face to face with an enemy.

At the current state of the game, defense actually being as useful as other stats in the game is a pipe dream.
