If players (and I should know, as I play like this) pile all their levels into defense and none into attack, then eventually it become both impossible for monsters to hurt the player, and impossible for the player to hurt the monster, without very high attack/low defense scores on part of the enemies. But this makes high attack/low defense play somewhat binary. This doesn't seem fun I remember playing through into the "after" section of LOT and finding myself barely able to hurt some of the enemies - it took me ages to kill one bonca in particular, relying mostly on magic.

How on earth do all you makers of long d-mods manage to keep the game balanced?
