If anything the defense system was just a pat on the back to Thieves that got taken from behind when avoidability stopped having any effect at all. I went from taking maybe 1/15 hits from bosses like zak and bigfoot, to 1/2. The new system just decreased the damage those hits did by 10% or so. Simply backing up all the brute force classes, and making it easier to rush blindly into a giant mob. Thieves have to think a little more before they go FJing around like we tend to do so obnoxiously 
I miss the avoid system but I certainly am not complaining, now that im maxing energize on my BaM and seeing exactly how effective defense is. Just sucks going from 999 avoid and soloing dojo without a scratch, to 4400 avoid and snails hitting you constantly. Not sure how I prefer it
