But seriously though. Even though monsters rarely defend, each die only has 50% chance to hit. That's very random, so the extra die helps tip the odds.
I dunno... It's hard to actually do math on this because of all the combinations of monsters-types and numbers.
It's a question of preferences I guess. Being a walking fortress with 5 defense dice isn't bad either
