i don't know if this something everybodi know, but i just discovered this yesterday:
when you mod a shield you can give it positive defence bonus by setting negative encumberance,
with this formula
defence= - #enc
parry = #def - #enc

example
#def 5 #enc -2 #prot 2
will traslate to a shield with
parry +3; +2 defense; -2 enc; +4 prot
