Defending indicates your overall ability to defend against attacks, and is in the armor skillset. It replaces Multiple Opponent's functionality as the skill used when being engaged with multiple foes, and also increases your defensive skills so that they're more effective overall. Defending is best trained by being in combat and successfully defending against an attack. With the removal of Multi-Opponent as a skill, managing multiple opponents in combat has become a skill check - The aggressor's Tactics vs the defenders Defending. This allows the skill to grow with you as you fight harder things, rather than requiring defense against five creatures to keep the skill moving at high ranks. In general, fighting more than two creatures at the same time will drastically increase the difficulty to defend.
