Trying to figure out the HP of a +2 Living Steel Undead Defiant Buckler

[Athris of the Nine Dragons]

I can’t seem to find the thickness of a buckler anywhere and for hp purposes is this +3? What is the total hp?

Historically, a bit less than 1/2”. But it doesn’t matter in game terms. Unless a special material specifically tells you otherwise (adamantine) you use the same HP as the base shield. The HP/thickness rules are there for items that aren’t gear. Like a door.

No, the bonus to HP and hardness specifically only applies to enhancement bonus. Not to total cost of properties.

25. 5 for being a buckler and 20 for a +2 enhancement bonus.
