No matter how strong you are, after 81 you're probably going to get attacked a lot. Especially during soul gem events, for sealstones, and when you level up. There are no restrictions after level 81 so leveling up very fast will not make much of a difference unless you have a good defense team.

However, being attacked can be good and bad.

The Bad: If you own a lot of silver, you will lose 50,000 silver per defeat. Your losses add up of course. In events like conquests and guild conquests where spirit matters a lot, your defense spirit will take a hit and might mess up the strategy you're working on.

The Good: If you manage to fend off the attacker, you stand to make a lot of silver, which is pretty useful for solo conquests to farm lower level bosses :D. In soul gem events, you can make soul gems 1-5 by defending an enemy attack.

Some general tips for your defense team.

1) Try to set up a team that has all 5 cards of a single class.

2) Try to have as many defense boosters as possible, over attack reducers.

3) Try to include the cards that have high trigger rate first. Having a card with 8k defense and high trigger is more valuable than a card with 10k defense and not high trigger. This is my opinion (4 out of 5 cards in my deck have high trigger rate).

4) If you have a deck similar to mine with 4 high triggers, put the lower trigger rate as your leader since the leader gets a 15% trigger bonus. This would make a normal trigger rate card the equivalent of a high trigger rate (or pretty close).

5) When you level up, make sure you NEVER have a low level daemon as your lead. Leveling up puts you at the top of the battle opponents list, making you vulnerable to being attacked. Having a low level daemon as lead at this time is the worst thing that can happen to your silves/losses. I experienced this in the last en garde event. I had a wind weasel as my lead and leveled up. In a matter of a few seconds, I have 15-20 losses stacked up. Why? Because the wild weasel being my lead demanded only 6 defense spirit for me to count as a target that can be attacked. Higher level cards require higher defense spirit and thus, if you don't have the necessary defense spirit for your leader, you cannot be attacked.

That's all I can think of at this moment. So it's your choice if you want stay below 80, or level up fast after 80. My suggestion would definitely be to level up. Higher levels = more ability points = more stats = more quest completions = more ability points = easier to perform better in events without having to use many items.

Good luck with whatever you choose to do :D
