WOIN Defense Cap

[Morrus]

Because it appears as though this is what is causing the confusion.

Yes, this is apparent! I apologies profusely for writing that line!

So essentially it would be calculated like this:

Grade 5 character.

Attribute:Agility(3d6)+Skill:Shield(1d6)+2(medium Shied)+1d6(High Quality Shield)+2(Size: Small)-(medium Armor -2, reduced to 0 from 3 ranks in Armor: Medium)+2(Exploit Shield bearer)

Capped: Attribute:Agility(3d6)+Skill:Shield(1d6)+1d6(High Quality Shield)

Uncapped:+2(medium Shield)+2(Size: Small)-0(medium Armor -2, reduced to 0 from 3 ranks in Armor: Medium)+2(Exploit Shield bearer)

If I have understood your post correctly here and in WOIN - Capping Your Dice Pool correctly?

As far as I can see, that's right.

I never thought about a shield skill so far, and I dont know why...

It's meant to be easier to say "the defence is capped" than to say "the dice pool that forms your defence is capped" ;-)
