'''{{PAGENAME}}''' is one of the seven {{Icon|Combat}} skills in Melvor Idle. It is one of three skills (along with {{Skill|Hitpoints}} and {{Skill|Prayer}}) that is always used when determining a player or monster's [[Combat Level]] regardless of what combat style they are strongest with.
'''{{PAGENAME}}''' is a {{Icon|Combat}} skill. It is one of three skills (along with {{Skill|Hitpoints}} and {{Skill|Prayer}}) that is used when determining a player or monster's [[Combat Level]], regardless of what combat style they are strongest with.


==Mechanics==
A higher Defence level increases the player's [[Combat#Evasion Rating|evasion ratings]] in combat, which lowers a monster's chance to hit. Defence does ''not'' affect the damage dealt by a successful attack, which is mostly a factor of [[Damage Reduction]]. As it results in fewer hits against the player, however, a higher Defence level can help reduce [[food]] usage in combat. Defence has no effect in {{Skill|Thieving}}.


The Defence skill increases the player's melee, ranged, and magic evasion rating. For details on how Evasion Rating is calculated, refer to the [[Combat#Evasion Rating|Evasion Rating section]] on the {{Icon|Combat}} page.
Most Melee-focused armour requires a certain Defence level to be equipped.


==Gaining Defence XP==
== Mechanics ==


Defence experience can be earned while using any Combat Style by selecting the appropriate Attack Style:
The Defence skill increases the player's melee, ranged, and magic evasion ratings. For details on how Evasion Rating is calculated, refer to the [[Combat#Evasion Rating|Evasion Rating section]] on the {{Icon|Combat}} page.


* While using {{Icon|Melee}}, select the Block Attack Style
== Gaining Defence XP ==
* While using {{Skill|Ranged}}, select the Longrange Attack Style
* While using {{Skill|Magic}}, select the Defensive Attack Style


XP gained is based on damage dealt. When using the Block Attack Style, 0.4 Defence XP will be received per point of damage done. When using the Longrange or Defensive Attack Styles, 0.2 Defence XP will be received per point of damage done, with another 0.2 XP going to Ranged or Magic respectively.
Defence XP can be earned in combat with any of the three combat styles by selecting the appropriate attack style:


The {{ItemIcon|Gold Emerald Ring}} increases all combat XP gained by 7%.
* While using {{Icon|Melee}}, choose the "Block" attack style
* While using {{Skill|Ranged}}, choose the "Longrange" attack style
* While using {{Skill|Magic}}, choose the "Defensive" attack style


== Armour Materials ==
Defence XP gained is based on damage dealt to an enemy, not damage taken by the player. When using the Block attack style, 0.4 Defence XP is awarded per point of damage done. When using the Longrange or Defensive attack styles, 0.2 Defence XP is awarded per point of damage done, with another 0.2 XP per point of damage going to Ranged or Magic, respectively.
Each armour material requires a certain Defence level to be equipped. Below is a table detailing which Defence level is required for which armour material.
