AR of shield, it's not based on what I set! Help me please!

[DerexScript]

#----------------------------------------------

I know that armor is based on the value of "Chance" that is in the "armrzone.cfg"
But the shield does not seem to use the same calculation as the armor it uses! Which is the value of "Chance" that stays in the "armrzone.cfg"

Check if there is a MOD active on your character.
Also check the MAXHP of this item in-game.

I think print answers what you asked me!

HP = MaxHP
ArMod = 0
Ar Shield = 12
Ar Character= 6

How is this possible?

It's a while now but If I can remember correctly, the AR in the item's definition is not applied directly but there is a correction factor depending on the layer.

Can you tell me how I can apply this fix?

The AR of a shield is proportional to half your Parrying skill, and at least 1.0:

ar_shield = max(1.0, shield.AR * (parrying/2)/100)

So if you have 100.0 Parrying, the shield will give you 50% of its AR. In your case, 50% of 12 is 6.

This calculation is part of Core (pol.exe)? Can give advice how to change this behavior?

Thanks.

It's hard-coded and there's currently no option to change it.

If you are interested in the code, it's in Character::refresh_ar().

Thank you very much for taking time to help me.
I'm starting in eScript. And I think I'm going to need your help a lot.
Thanks for the help.
