Ok, so with my template i will have 102 melee defense (+11 from clothes = 113) and 119 ranged defense (+3 from clothes = 122), will this make me avoid most attacks in pve and to some extents pvp, will i be very very hard to hit, or is it just a small modifier?

Would you consider this to be much better than just the defenses from rifleman?

OK thanks. Its a really hard decision for me as im doing some of the fs boxes anyway, with an eye to getting jedi in the very long term future, so investing large amounts of combat xp is a hard choice.

Thanks

oh - if you are going Jedi you will appreciate those FS Melee Defence and Ranged Defence boxes even more.... No armor and they help even after you are a complete Jedi template I think (not sure)

The defense boxes do help Jedi... the 6 FS lines necessary for Jedi can't be dropped once you are a Jedi.

actually those are fairly good levels - you will definitely notice less attacks hitting you (and with the nice side effect of less armor decay ^-^) It will not completely protect you (especially against the highest level of pve creatures) but it will help immensely. Melee Defence will help when something closes with you - it works even if you have a rifle equiped.

Agreed but against high lvll stuff like krayts and Elders ranged & melee defence do nothing at all they alway hit you regardless
