Hi,
When a character equips a shield in 4E, the bonus to AC and the penalty to skill checks are applied normally, however, the bonus to Reflex does not appear (in 4E, the bonus from shields applies both to AC and to Reflex).

Here a screen shot of a blank character equipped only with a heavy shield.

Thanks in advance !

Thanks for reporting. It has never done the Reflex calculation for shields; it has always been manual. I'll see if I can add a check in a future update; since I have a few more helper functions to use that could help.

Hello !
Bumping up the thread, because one of my players might be regularly switching between a two handed weapon and a one handed weapon + shield :P

Just pushed this in the Test channel; that is scheduled to be released later this month.
