{{Mb|=-% Target Defense}} reduces target defense by a percentage of the total when calculating [[Attack#Chance to hit|chance to hit]] for [[melee]] and [[missile]] attacks. Reducing target defense is equivalent to increasing Attack Rating, multiplying it by 100/(100 - % Target 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).
 +
*It applies only to attacks made by the user, including [[Blade Shield]].
 +
*Any bonus on a weapon applies only to attacks (including [[Dragon Talon]], [[Dragon Tail]] and [[Dragon Flight]]) made using that weapon. [https://www.theamazonbasin.com/wiki/index.php?title=Two_weapons#Weapon_modifier]
 +
*Defense reduction is halved (if -100% is supplied, only -50% is effectively applied) against the following:
 +
**Player
 +
**[[Mercenary]] [https://www.mannm.org/d2library/faqtoids/cth_eng.html#defminus]
 +
**[[Super Unique]]
 +
**[[Boss]] [https://www.theamazonbasin.com/forums/index.php?/forums/topic/117653-cth-questions/&do=findComment&comment=1459085] [https://www.theamazonbasin.com/forums/index.php?/forums/topic/119767-eth-runes/&do=findComment&comment=1484031]
 +
*Defense cannot be reduced below 0, so < -100% is redundant against anything other than the above, and < -200% is '''always''' redundant. {{Warn|=< -150% is beyond reach in the unmodified game}}. [https://www.mannm.org/d2library/faqtoids/cth_eng.html#defminus]
 +
*{{Warn|=Chance to hit displayed by character screen when cursor is over Attack Rating field does '''not''' take it into account.}}

Diablo II Notation Basic Class Skill Item Ally Quest Area Monster Tale
Attribute Unit Animation Attack Damage Death
Two weapons Fires Magic Arrows Explosive Arrows Piercing Attack Attack Rating AR vs Demons AR vs Undead
% Attack Rating Defense Enhanced Defense Defense per hit % Defense Defense vs Melee Defense vs Missile
Target Defense Ignore Defense Block Chance to Cast On Attack On Striking When Struck

-% Target Defense reduces target defense by a percentage of the total when calculating chance to hit for melee and missile attacks. Reducing target defense is equivalent to increasing Attack Rating, multiplying it by 100/(100 - % Target 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).

  • It applies only to attacks made by the user, including Blade Shield.
  • Any bonus on a weapon applies only to attacks (including Dragon Talon, Dragon Tail and Dragon Flight) made using that weapon. [1]
  • Defense reduction is halved (if -100% is supplied, only -50% is effectively applied) against the following:
  • Defense cannot be reduced below 0, so < -100% is redundant against anything other than the above, and < -200% is always redundant. < -150% is beyond reach in the unmodified game. [5]
  • Chance to hit displayed by character screen when cursor is over Attack Rating field does not take it into account.
