Rapier of shielding

Does the Shield AC on the Rapier stack with the feat Two Weapon Defense?

Yes it does. It does not stack with the shield spell though since they are both enchantments

It gives magical shield AC, which means it will stack with a shield, but not with the magical enchantment bonus.

It won't stack with the shield spell either.


Hope it helps.

Yes, but you must wear a shield for it to appear.

Alright, I'll start this again.

The rapier shield AC bonus of 2 is an enhencement bonus.

Which means, it doesn't stack with spells like shield or magic vestment (cast on shield), it doesn't stack with enhencement bonus on a shield you would wear.

The only thing it will stack with is the shield itself, and the specialisation, or any class-feats I'm not aware of, like those from the Man at arms. THOUGH, for those to apply, you need to be wearing a shield.
