[[File:Defense.png|thumb|600px|Player character's defense is displayed to the right of [[Dexterity]] on the character screen. [[Attack#Chance to hit|Chance to hit]] of last target (or a [[Fallen#Fallen|Fallen]] at start of first game) is displayed when cursor is over Defense field.]]
|}

{{Mb|=Defense}} affects chance to hit when an attack skill is used which requires a hit check to apply its damage and other effects. It is the sum of [Dexterity/4] and defense added by equipped items, and charms in [[Expansion]] games. The following [[item type]]s have defense values of their own, normally selected randomly from a range specified for each individual item:

{|border=1 cellpadding=2 rules=all style="empty-cells:show; text-align:center; font-size:90%" width=100%
!colspan=3|[[Item type#Armor|Armor]]
|-valign=top
|width=33%|
'''[[Helm]]''' 
[[Circlet]] 
[[Pelt]] 
[[Primal helm]]
|width=34%|
[[Body armor]] 
[[Belt]] 
[[Boots]] 
[[Gloves]]
|width=33%|
'''[[Shield]]''' 
[[Auric shield]] 
[[Shrunken head]]
|}

If any of these items is low quality, its defense value is reduced by 25%; if any of these items is [[ethereal]], its defense value is increased by 50% (rounded down to the nearest point). Any Enhanced Defense percentage on that item is then applied (rounding down to the nearest point), and then any + Defense and + Defense (Based on Character Level) bonuses from the items listed below are added before any further defense modifiers are applied.

1 Defense from equipped [[item]]s is also added.

*When defense includes a MonLvl value, 100% of the value for the relevant [[difficulty]] level and pet [[Attack#Level|level]] is used.
*Defense of [[Conversion|converted]] and [[Mind Blast|mind blasted]] is determined using clvl when clvl < mlvl; otherwise, mlvl continues to be used. [https://www.theamazonbasin.com/forums/index.php?/forums/topic/121381-onderduiker-clarification-please-on-conversion/&do=findComment&comment=1505822] Defense of [[Revive]]d always continues to use mlvl.
*Defense of [[Reanimate]]d [[Skeleton#Returned|Returned]] is the same as that of a normal Returned that would spawn in the same [[area]] and difficulty level.
 

==Monster==
[[Monster]] defense varies depending on [[difficulty]] level, monster [[Attack#Level|level]] and monster type:

Base defense = <nowiki>[</nowiki>[[MonLvl#Defense|MonLvl]] * MonStats/100] [https://d2mods.info/forum/kb/viewarticle?a=354]

*MonLvl values for the relevant difficulty and monster level (without any [[Champion]], [[Unique (monster)|Unique]] or minion bonus) [https://www.theamazonbasin.com/forums/index.php?/forums/topic/118104-monster-bonuses-death-damage-and-corpse-explosion/&do=findComment&comment=1495104] are modified by percentage values stored in the MonStats.txt file, which vary depending on monster type.
*{{Warn|=[[Attack#Chance to hit|Chance to hit]] displayed by character screen also uses MonStats.txt value for monster level to select MonLvl value in all three difficulty levels, but this only applies to [[boss]]es in Nightmare and Hell: otherwise, [[area]] level determines mlvl in Nightmare and Hell.}} [https://www.diabloii.net/forums/threads/lcs-attack-rating-and-chance-to-hit-formulas.837129/post-8387692] For example, any [[Fallen#Fallen|Fallen]] in Normal is level 1 with 5 defense. In Hell, the character screen calculates chance to hit based on any Fallen being level 67 with 933 defense in [[Ladder]] and [[Single Player]] games: however, this is only true if it spawns in a level 67 area like the [[Blood Moor]]; if it spawns in a level 83 area like the [[Underground Passage Level 2]], then it is level '''83''' with '''1,131''' defense.
*[[Stone Skin]] [[Unique (monster)|Unique]] bonus doubles monster defense (including any defense from equipped [[item]]s) [https://www.theamazonbasin.com/forums/index.php?/forums/topic/118463-stone-skin-unique-modifier/&do=findComment&comment=1472371] before [[Inner Sight]] or any [[% Defense]] is applied, although - [[Monster Defense per hit]] applies to monster defense before this bonus. [https://www.theamazonbasin.com/forums/index.php?/forums/topic/118463-stone-skin-unique-modifier/&do=findComment&comment=1468820] {{Warn|=Chance to hit displayed by character screen does '''not''' take this bonus into account.}}
