Your DV bonus in defensive stance is increased to +3.

Improved Defensive Stance is a skill which provides an extra +1 DV while using Defensive Stance.

As with all improved stances, Improved Defensive Stance is not an independent activated ability. Rather, it simply applies an additional bonus to Defensive Stance. Most notably, this means that acquiring Improved Defensive Stance without possessing Defensive Stance will not allow a creature to use this skill, they must possess both skills to gain any benefit from this one.

Factions That Teach Improved Defensive Stance

Improved Defensive Stance is not taught by any of Qud's persistent factions. However, procedurally generated factions such as village factions can teach randomly chosen skills as part of their water ritual.
