I have a balanced battleaxe of defense that is not giving me any defense bonuses whatsoever. Am I missing something, or is this a bug?

it won't work untill you are not oin defensive tactics. when it would kick extra six points of DV.

this is not a bug.

[spoiler]I checked back and it did apply the bonus, but only when in defensive tactics. I'm pretty sure in the past when I've had weapons of defense they worked while on "normal"[/spoiler]

Maybe that was an older version of ADOM?

Halberds of defense always provide 18 DV.

Halberds of defense are very nice weapons, since you don't even need a shield with all that DV.

Shields give more though (which is why I use them). +20 for the skill and from +0 to +16 for the shield.

Yeah, I generally fight in a spear + shield format. One of my true-berserking wizards was lucky enough to get a halberd of defense in the SMC, which is great at that point, but it wasn't enough to save my life.

>+20 for the skill and from +0 to +16 for the >shield.

if you got 0 from shield you got 0 from skill. in order to get full +20 shield must be at least +10

Would said Battleaxe of defense still give the +6 DV bonus while in Very Defensive and Coward tactics?
