Ranged def and melee def only work well against low end npcs. Wont help against other pvpers or ns etc. So better to put skill points into state defence. Cob macro will mean counterattack will stop a lot of hits anyway.

Can anyone confirm this? I've always had 3/4/0/0 fencer and kept the first tree due to the melee/ranged def bonuses.....but i'd love to drop them in favor of some more in the pharm line. I only pvp so I need to know if my already high melee/ranged def. is useless in PvP. thx guys

its helpful in pvp, until you get intimidated and stunned (unless your opponent is blinded).

a bh/carbineer with a +100 accuracy carbine can go through any melee/ranged defense and dodge/counterattack/block though, since they can get up to 300 accuracy (most have tons of acc attachments, so probly around 325).

but then again,most bh/carbineers arent much of a factor.
