Just because you're defending doesn't mean you get attacked. Staying behind to guard a tower till it's destroyed doesn't mean the opposing faction will try to re-take it with you there. Same with graveyards, having 2 or 3 people sitting waiting for it to cap is usually enough of a deterrent to prevent the enemy from retaking it. I've been in some AVs where I get only a couple HK's while defending a tower/GY and others where I get several dozen.
