{{Intro}}
{{Mb|=% Defense}} applies a percentage to defense after [[Inner Sight]], but before the following:
*[[Berserk]] penalty
*Defense vs. Melee Defense vs. Missile
*-% Target Defense
*Ignore Target's Defense
Since no +% Defense applies to the vast majority of monsters, reducing defense is equivalent to increasing Attack Rating, multiplying it by 100/(100 - % Defense).

For example, -50% is equivalent to multiplying AR by 2 (100/(100-50) ), while a combination of +200% AR (*3) and -50% (*2) is equivalent to +500% AR (so -50% itself is equivalent to +300% AR in this case).
