Okay
I think the defense stat is different with each class.
While my bish and xenon are like tanks and take not so damage is my AB instead a squishy toy and takes like the triple they take.
Its really dumb because you die faster.

    Bishop has a skill that permanently reduces damage that they take and a skill that increase defense by a bit.
    Xenon has a skill that increase defense by a bit, a skill that decrease damage when it is active and they uses STR as one of their main stat (each STR give 1.5 defense)
    Each point of DEX give 0.4 defense
    Angelic Buster has no skill that grant defense, but they have a skill that reduces damage by 50% if they can keep it charged.
    Angelic Buster naturally has less defense than the above classes at no funding.
    Each additional point of defense matter more in reducing damage when you have low defense (1 extra point of defense at 500 will block more damage than 1 extra point of defense at 1000).
    If monster is higher level than you, they can ignore some of your defense (monster do significantly more damage when you have low defense because each point of defense matter more)
