+Wielding a polearm while wearing a shield improves the wielder's [[AC]] by 2, though this is generally only possible with large monsters (and their polyforms) or smaller polearm weapons.
 [[Shiro]] is a [[Spirits (dNetHack)|spirit]] that grants skill in polearms while bound.

-In [[xNetHack]], bone armor offers 1 less point of [[AC]] compared to its [[iron]] counterparts, but does not incur spellcasting penalties with the exception of shields; positively-enchanted bone armor will intercept a [[level drain]] that hits the hero, instead draining a point of enchantment from the armor. Bone weapons can hit [[ghost]]s and shades, though they do not gain damage bonuses unlike [[silver]] weapons. Since bone is a rigid material, bone [[helm]]s offer protection against falling objects.
+In [[xNetHack]], bone as an [[Object materials (xNetHack)|object material]], bone has less than one-third the weight of iron (specifically {{frac|5|16}}). Items with [[wood]] and iron base materials can rarely be made of bone, with a {{frac|100}} chance for iron or [[steel]] items and a {{frac|3|100}} chance for wooden items.
 Skeletons may drop [[skeleton key]]s made of bone.
