Ignore Target's Defense

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 Ignore Target's Defense (ITD) treats the target as having 0 Defense when calculating Chance to Hit for melee and ranged attacks. Attack Rating is thus redundant, resulting in the following: Chance to hit = 2 * Level attacker / (Level attacker + Level defender) ITD applies only to attacks made by the user, including Blade Shield. ITD on a weapon applies only to attacks (including Dragon Talon, Dragon Tail and Dragon Flight) made using that weapon. [1] ITD does not apply to any of the following: Hostile player Hostile mercenary [2] Champion Unique Super Unique Boss Does apply to minions.
