On the other hand, defense seems much easier to come by. I don’t think they’re supposed to be equivalent in usefulness.

Definitely not. We can see this discrepancy even when choosing character upgrades, where Defence costs substantially less points than an equivalent Offensive boost. A piece of equipment that gives on +3 Def also costs much less Flezz than one that gives you +3 Off usually, from what I’ve noticed.

That said, though, I think Defence could do with a little boost. As things stand, players may eventually end up saying “**** it” and completely ignore that stat, which kind of defeats the purpose of having it in the first place. A character that invests heavily in Defence should get some returns, even if it isn’t as much as Offence.

Huh? The +1 defense upgrades cost the same as the +1 offense upgrades at the equivalent level.

Also, the heterozygous tiger gives +5 offense, the troll club gives +3/+3. The troll club costs over twice as much for -2 offense and +3 defense, and +15 douchebaggery. That makes no sense unless defense is supposed to be roughly equivalent to offense. The only item I see that fits what you’re saying is hazardous waste vs thieved identity.
