AC Bonus (Ex): When unarmored and unencumbered, the duskblade adds her Intelligence bonus (if any) to her AC. In addition, a duskblade gains a +1 bonus to AC at 5th level. This bonus increases by 1 for every five duskblade levels thereafter (+2 at 10th, +3 at 15th, and +4 at 20th level).
These bonuses to AC apply even against touch attacks or when the monk is flat-footed. She loses these bonuses when she is immobilized or helpless, when she wears any armor, when she carries a shield, or when she carries a medium or heavy load.
