Questions about shields?

Heya -- 

 

So, if I equip Eder with a shield that has 8 deflection, it only shows as having 4 deflection in the Character Stat page. What gives? This applies also when I equip a Large Shield, it will have 16 deflection, but only give me 8.

Have you moused over the Deflection stat? That should show your shield benefit plus a separate benefit for it's enchantment, I think (e.g. Larder Door +16, fine +4), etc.
