Ive just tried a few matches as defense and i when't 20-1 i was very suprised about how much damage i still did but is there any builds for defense focused on pure damage? i was thinking maybe picking up the single sabre mastery and playing in shii-cho form and using a focus in the offhand rather than a shield. But anyone have some builds or setup for defense damage?

Best bet for that is to use the offensive set run Soresu for guards and spec Focus.

 

With a Shield Gen of course.
