Just had a look at this 71% defence outside of the T9 power myself... It's extremely easy to reach tbh. that's also without weave and maneuvers. if you were to use them then i can't see any need for kuji-in retsu :P
*edit* i thought i'd post the build i did to show you how to achieve this Cognito. This is by no means a fully done build but it's 3 in the morning and i've just had a quick look at it so i'm sure you'll change powers/slots etc. just 2 quick notes though, you can actually reach 84% without T9 or weave and maneuvers but this gimps your build lol. and on SR you can reach 77% defence without T9, weave and maneuvers and without gimping your build. apart from /nin having that extra placate i'd say SR would be the best choice for a stalker imo. that extra bit of defence plus the +recharge has a whole lot of win tbh
let me know if you want any more help this
