Ok, so I got at my Cleave the Defensive Stance, which gives me a stack of Defiace. Does really work on Devastator? And what exactly do? Increase the your Defense? I see at Effects that it adds +6.5% damage reduction per stack! What that means?

    Defense gives Damage Reduction, but has a built-in diminishing returns. Getting straight-up Damage Reduction like that avoids the DR, much like getting flat Dodge Chance from Evasive Maneuvers vs Dodge Rating from gear, most other powers, etc.

    In other words, Damage Reduction is basically the same as Defense. Also note that the 6.5% is the base amount. It scales up with Constitution.
