Ok, I chose poles in order to switch up to a shield with a spear or halberd if I need extra DS, but still able to keep around a killin' machine (Naginata/Lance Madness!), but I seem to see some stupidity with this system:


Just my 4x Spear.
XXXX swings a closed fist at you!
AS: +13 vs DS: +189 with AvD: -5 + d100 roll: +94 = -87
A clean miss.
My 4x spear, One Handed.
XXXX swings a closed fist at you!
AS: +13 vs DS: +133 with AvD: -5 + d100 roll: +33 = -92
A clean miss.
4x shield and 4x spear, One Handed.
XXXX swings a closed fist at you!
AS: +13 vs DS: +226 with AvD: -5 + d100 roll: +51 = -167
A clean miss.

Armor Use..........................| 181 81
Shield Use.........................| 181 81
Combat Maneuvers...................| 156 56
Thrown Weapons.....................| 152 52
Polearm Weapons....................| 152 52

81 ranks in Shield Use, 52 ranks in Polearms, 226 Defense.

For the recap,
+20 shield
+20 Spear
+22 MBP,
so roughly 164 defense from 81 ranks in shield, and 52 ranks in polearms, in DEF.

Dexterity (DEX): 63 (16) ... 63 (16)
Agility (AGI): 65 (12) ... 65 (12)

Ok, I've assisted about this, because this does seem a bit low. (similarily trained OHE/SHIELD) would have roughly 350 DS.

Any Ideas?
