It's just one level that accounts for your combat level if you choose melee as the combat style you fight as.

Pures usually stick with one combat style: Magic, Range and Melee. Range and Mage are pretty self explanitory, with just one level to raise.

Melee is different, you have three levels: Attack, Strength and Defense. The more you raise these levels, the higher your combat level will raise.

Pures want to remain the lowest combat level possible, while having the highest possible fighting levels. Cutting Defense out is one way of doing this.

They max out their Attack and Strength, hoping that they will do enough damage to their opponet that they will live through whatever hits they take. With 1 Defense, you take a lot of high hits and lots of them. You just hope on your high Attack and Defense to carry you through a fight.

For example, you could have a character with a combat level of 50. That character could have 60 Attack and Strength, but with 1 Defense. Now, if you were to raise that Defense to 60, that character would have a combat of roughly 70+ something.

The same goes for Pure Rangers and Magic users. The will gain combat levels if they gain Defense levels. They just have to raise a lot of defense levels for it to effect them much.

Hope this helps

easy, the main point of a pure is to hit as hard as possible at as low a level.

as only att and str control how often and hard you hit, they're needed, but defending yourself from blows isnt important, and keeping def low also keeps the combat level down
