I think I sold both of them.

By raising defense you'll only lower 8 damage at a time. By raising evasion you'll lower 180 damage at a time! How do you raise evasion? Be the target of physical attacks, cast Blink (should be about level 8 ), and unequip armor and shields. That's right, in order to take less damage, you have to use flimsy armor. The Ninja Gear has no evasion penalty whatsoever. The Genji Armor has an evasion penalty of 79.

Ahhh, the things they don't tell you in the manual...
Since my blood swords were probably stolen, I'll switch to light armor. Thanks!
