I just deployed a fix to a bug involving the impact of nerve damage on defenses. Previously, in the vast majority of situations, nerve damage had no impact on your defenses in combat due to a math error (And in some edge cases can actually be a boon). This is no longer the case.
This fix applies to both creatures and players equally.
If you regularly hunt with high levels of nerve damage, hunt with care.
