Actually, shield IS mentioned, lower down, as the only action that may be taken while dodging.

If you look at the chart, the higher the unmodified AV of the armor, the less you dodge. Same with Attacker DV. The better his dexterity and agility, the less you can dodge, as he's better at compensating for your movement with some of his own.

Higher raw AV means heavier and more restrictive armor. Shields don't restrict the whole body range of motion, just the one arm, and so aren't part of dodging, pro or con. 

So: wear a shield and remember to Block with it as well as Dodge.
