There was one multiplayer game I played where the formula for attack and defense was rather basic so I pumped up my defense skyhigh in a week's time while ignoring attack and health for the most part (just enough that they would allow me to do damage and survive criticals) that I was a top-tier player on that server in just that week of playing. I was even accused of cheating and almost banned. Most other players shot up HP, attack, and special attack, but completely ignored defense, keeping it half or not even that great. Or perhaps it was equal all. But I think I was their first player to go defense heavy and take on players that had been around for weeks, maybe months, with little to no effort except pumping up defense to excess. And perhaps the only player at the time to have more than 1.5x defense than offense (it was closer to 5x).
I didn't stick around after that, mostly because I got bored of holding down a button on my keyboard with a battery for ten minutes, changing the difficulty level, healing, then running in place for ten more minutes. Did help me get through The Dark Tower series though. Excellent motivation to read.
Defense > HP
