this may sound very vague, but i've become confused because of this.
i have several different gears, each with varying amounts of def/mdef/skill delay/hp/resistsances whenever i play around with them
since i don't really understand much out of the damage reduction math, i really don't know what i can sacrifice and what i shouldn't sacrifice. i'm currently lvl 142 pally vit>int>str
gears:
weapon: fuma up hp+20%/ama no habakiri hp+20%/dia espada hp+20%
body: licht hp+20%/exe3 hp+20%
additional: wolf ear hp+20%-rowell/carmo hood hp+20%/edel hood up hp+20%/Idealsol hp+20%
spec: wisdom earring hp+20%/kgaunt/auto revita/scholar ring/anti-magic armor
my stats can go on many ways 644 def/708 mdef with -2.5s skill delay -/- 864 def/1501 mdef with just -0.5 skill delay -/- 810 def 871 mdef -1.5 skill delay
obviously higher is better, but what's considered to be "enough"

Ive lived with around 400 def and 100mdef. Fortis pretty much takes care of the attacks that matter.
After apostolia, your def/mdef increases (extra stats, al chrysta). I have around 1200def and 300mdef now (unbuffed, no def+ gears like litch/wound transer)
If you need to be particular for def/mdef, you might want to do it with gears while maintaining hp20s. I would estimate that at 270 we can push to around 2.5k+ def or maybe around 3k to 4k mdef for an int build (maybe 2k+ mdef for non int). These are just my estimates and I should only be able to test this after I get an extra al chrysta page and after I reset my stats.

DEF/MDEF aren't really all that great at reducing damage. So overall I would say it doesn't matter much. You have a majority of the best Pally gear already. There's somethings you can cut out though. Here's an adjusted list of all the really good stuff:
Izuminokami(if that's how you spell it lol), Wound Transfer, Ama No Habakiri, Katz II
Wolf Ears(when you need hate and for fire stuff since you have it already), Ideasol(for damage and more survival), Barbarotita or some HP equip for people who don't have Wolf Ears
Licht Armor is best. Excelis is better for damage
Wisdom Earrings 20%. Knight Gauntlet slot is an upgrade over this but the other stuff doesn't matter much.
Paladins survive well enough without going overboard on defensive type gear so the main focus in gearing is damage and hate rise. Both help each other out pretty much at least lol.
